Photo Hunters - Childhood



The theme for this week's Photo Hunters search was "childhood." So many possibilities. I can't wait to see all the different interpretations everyone chooses.

Here's my selection - a picture from my own childhood.

The Hunt - Childhood




Here I am in 3rd grade. I'm the one wearing the red shirt in the second row from the top. I loved my teacher, Mrs. McCrary. She was terrific. I blogged about her last summer in this post. 30 years later, I can still name just about everyone in this picture.

Stop by TNChick for a look at her "childhood."

Love the class photo! Those were always fun days at school weren't they? Everyone dressed up!

Happy Saturday!

Wow, I can only tell you that my third cousin was in my third grade class and my teacher was Mrs. Scott. I would have no idea as to who the others were. Then I am not good with names and it was over 40 years ago.

What I love the most about older pictures is seeing the dress styles from back then! lol I don't have any class pictures for myself, I guess my parents couldn't afford them...sigh. Thank you for sharing this picture with us:-)

That is great to be able to still name everyone! I don't know if my mom still has pictures like that, but I don't think I could name former classmates from my childhood.

Yup. HAve some of those around here. :) I still remember everyone in class not to mention their personalities. Good to go to a small school where we stayed together through all grades.

Wow yours is in colour, mine black and white and it's 65 years ago.
I can only remember about 4 or 5 names.
Thanks for visiting

I have all my grade school class photos still, but I can't name a single person. You are good!!! What a great photo of your 3rd grade class.

Thank you for stopping by and have a great weekend.

Wow - you have a good memory. I am sure I would not be able to name everyone in a class photo of mine at that age!

Happy Weekend!
