Thinking about childhood last night made me think about some stuff.
You may remember some of these as well.
Playing with Kiddles way longer than I should have. But they were so cute!

Brought back memories...70s (late 60s)were good times
This brought back a lot of memories for me! Gotta love the 70's! Those were the days!
Good times indeed! My children would agree those days were rad.
Oh your such a baby girl. I was training as a nurse in the 70s and far to grown up to indulge in the Osmonds/Partridge family. But if you'd said the Small Faces,Andy Fairweather Low and the words groovy and fab in large letters then those are the pictures you'd have found on my bedroom wall.
And endless listening to Good Vibrations, All you Need is Love then we'd be talking!!!
Lovey to see so many of your wonderful childhood memories, especially with your grandparents. happy times by the look of the pics.
xx
Dang Jan! Where'd you find all these photos? You have so many that I don't ever remember seeing! Yes, sis, we gotta get together soon!
Luv Ya!

I LOVED Liddle Kiddles!!!! I still have one of mine - it's a sleeptime kiddle in her pink cradle. :)
Loved this post - great memories and photos. I didn't do nearly as much stuff as you - my sisters and I lived pretty sheltered lives, lol.
It does seem like yesterday doesn't it ...
The 70's! Best Time Ever! Thanks for the memories!
