Photos :: Looking back

This is something I have wanted to do for a long time now. I thought it would be neat to go back and look at this day a year ago and beyond. Well, beyond turned into three years ago which is pretty neat. I had the past two years on my external harddrive and then year three came from flickr. I took a look at my feed and I couldn't believe it when I saw a photo taken on October 10th, 2010. I'm just putting this together on the 9th so it's not like I chose the 10th because I had a photo. What a happy coincidence! Anyways here are my October the 10ths for the past three years.

October 10th 2010 :: It was Thanksgiving weekend and we were celebrating with my Dad's family. When the sun started to set my cousins, Ivan & I went down to the water to take photos.
October 10th 2011 :: Ah, this delicious pie. Well actually this pie that looked delicious and was almost delicious except for the fact that I used bittersweet chocolate instead of semisweet. It made a huge difference.

October 10th 2012 :: Andrea (who I miss now that she doesn't live quite so close!) came over and we started making something. A skirt or a dress maybe. Either way we never ended up finishing whatever we started. Also, look how little Pinny is!

October 10th 2013 :: And here is today. Just a quick snap, still in our pjs.

This was really neat to do and I will totally do it again! It is so interesting to see how things change and to remember through a photo what was going on at that point. You guys should totally do this sometime.

Have a great day!

  15. Ha, so cool! =c) Wow, I am too terribly unorganized with my photos to do something like this. - I have found some of my old journals and it was interesting to reread them.
