mother's day

our family recently found old super 8 home movies. these aren't all of them, or even the best of what we watched, but i tried to capture what i could.

in honor of my mother on mother's day, here are a few clips with her in them.  she's such a beaut.


this was the day my grandmother and grandfather brought my mom home from the hospital.  it's not easy to make out, but my handsome grandpa is holding her in his arms.


my mom worked at a summer camp for kids when she was young.  this was one of her projects.


and this was my parents' wedding day.  while my father was not seen in this (probably warming up with his band... they were their own entertainment), my mom can be seen with beautiful long brown hair, her lovely hippie wedding dress, and a flower crown.  so very mom.

happy mama's day, mama.  you're still my hero.
