I rarely do throwbacks but now that Christmas was just less than a month away, why not do a throwback Christmas! The left pic shows me sitting on Santa's lap. I was still in elementary school at that time... And the right pic shows one of the holiday picture frames I made in elementary school, with a couple of my young pics on there. It was also like a mirror selfie of 'then and now' lol.
Oh the good ol' times... I wish I was young again lol. Hope you guys have a nice and safe holiday season!
I got this jacket in 5th grade and I got in trouble so I couldn't wear it the whole year. By the time I got it back it was May and way too hot to wear. I thought I had outgrown it. Maybe have. Still hot though.
Halloween, 1989. I'm 6 years old.
I'm Tina Turner, natch. my parent say I had such a love for Tina, every time one of her songs would come on, I would stand up and yell "Tina Turner, that's my GIRL!"

In 1944, Ted DeGrazia buys property on the corner of Prince and Campbell Road in Tucson, Arizona with only $25.00 down. There he builds his first adobe studio. Happy Throwback Thursday!
My morning ritual starts with a bottle of Diet Pepsi, but today I found a bottle of Pepi Throwback, the one made with real sugar and not that stupid high fructose corn syrup. Pepsi should really think of making it this way again.
Throwback Thursday - it was five years ago this month that I walked out of my office for the last time. As a retirement gift, my company gave me a five day workshop in Death Valley (a message there somewhere). So I soon found myself on a cold winter's morning watching the rising sun's rays light up Zabriskie Point.
A partnership with the Fuller Fabric Company in 1952 led DeGrazia to produce many small-scale and full-sized watercolor designs for printed textiles. Several of these printed DeGrazia fabric samples are on display in our lower gallery. Happy Throwback Thursday!
Lupinus texensis, the Texas lupine or Texas bluebonnet, is a species of lupine endemic to Texas. It is the state flower of Texas. As the first hint of spring appears, the best time to enjoy bluebonnet sighting is the end of March through April.
In the early 50's DeGrazia started working on ceramics. This is when he perfected his copper-based glaze. NBC studios recorded a newsreel, called 'Watch the World,' where they filmed DeGrazia and Marion making these ceramics. He used original molds and his inspirations were taken from desert shapes and colors. Happy Throwback Thursday!
