Lawrence And Inez Estes

A casual photo of Grandmother and Granddaddy.

Lawrence Estes

This is a photo of Lawrence (Granddaddy as my sisters and I called him) Estes mugging for the camera. I think this is a classic photo because I have photos of me doing the exact same thing looking the exact same way. I inherited his goofiness and I don't deny it. You just gotta deal with it.

Lawrence And Inez Estes Wedding Picture

This is Lawrence and Inez Estes wedding picture. I think their anniversary is April 27 but I don't know the year. I believe it was probably 71 years ago. So probably it was 1940. What a handsome couple!

I wondered where his whimsy came from...that outfit! Click the photo for a larger image.

The second picture is of me and Daddy on the steps of the church. He was very happy because he had had several tranquilizers and I was very happy because I was getting married. I had lost several pounds and had to have my dress altered several times.
