Back in the Day

I came across some old photos the other day. This first photo demonstrates a couple of things. First of all, parents and grandparents love to dress their kids alike. I think most of you can recall many outfits from your own childhood, am I right?
Second, parents are sadists! You can't tell me that I WANTED to be tied up so tight into my little jacket!
And third, did they want us to get beaten up? Did my mom cut m bangs herself? What is up with that?

Here is a photo circa 1967. I think they put something into our koolaide. We look a little like we are up to something. Maybe we were just having too much fun torturing the new little Rubin Kinkaid!
