Birthday Greetings – Seasonal Sundays # 50

Welcome to the 50th Seasonal Sundays!

It’s my birthday and I thought what could be more perfect than to

share some greetings from the past.

Mind you, these are not greetings to me.

No, they date back much farther than my years.

Quite a number of years ago, I was in my parents’ attic and came

upon this old, dusty box of vintage post cards.

It was filled with all sorts, not just birthday ones, but since it’s my

birthday I thought it would be fun to share those with you today.

I have not purchased any of these. Each and every one are from a

distant cousin, Norine. Let’s see, if I do my genealogy correctly – I

think she was my grandfather’s first cousin, so that would make her

my first cousin twice removed. Yes? Anyone out that’s a genealogy

whiz, please feel free to correct me.

One of the oldest dates back to 1907 .

And the most recent dates 1919.

This one is from my grandfather, Harry – the birthday girl’s first cousin.

Interesting choice of a birthday greeting from “Mother”…

…or “Dad”.

This one was from her brother, Eddie.

It seems almost impossible to me that my second blog-aversary is quickly approaching. To celebrate my first blog-aversary, I hosted a party entitled “Where do you keep it all?”. It was a huge success and is by far my most visited post. In celebration of my second blog-aversary I will be hosting “Where do you keep it all? – Part 2” on Sunday, June 5th.

Now don’t be intimidated. It doesn’t have to be pretty or perfect. But please do share. I don’t think there’s a single one of us out there that collect and have the issue of storage under control. That’s the problem with collecting. Just when you have it all away, you find a new treasure. But isn’t that part of the fun of collecting?!?! So, grab the button above and put your thinking cap on. What would you like to share?
