Jennie and Clifford's Baptism Day.
Originally uploaded by snicketyone.
my cousin recently scanned some family photos including this amazing shot of my great-grandparents.
i don't remember great-grandma axtell very well, but she and grandpa axtell lived in a very old farm house in rural iowa. it didn't smell very good, and raleigh and i used to try to hold our breath when we visited.
when great-grandpa came to visit us in clarksville he swore a lot, kissed my mom on the lips and sat on the porch, shucking corn from our garden.
