october 15: les is 21

ok, i spent hours yesterday sorting through pictures to scan for leslie's birthday. at first when i tried to scan them nothing happened, then eventually they scanned and went somewhere in the computer, but i don't know where, so i am blogging pictures of leslie that are already in 'my pictures'. that means you probably have seen these on other blogs, but oh well. happy birthday to leslie anyway, and i will keep trying to scan the old photos or someone could give me a tutorial to solve the mystery of where pictures go when you scan them.
leslie is beautiful, although she actually thinks i'm not being objective when i say so. but she is. the creamiest skin, the prettiest lips, the rosy cheeks, the nicest smile; that's why we nicknamed her 'buttercream girl'. field trip to the rochester panel.
see, what did i tell you? she's a beauty!
many looks, many hair colors.


she stayed bald for so long, i never dreamed she'd have the head of hair she ended up with.

ok, leslie isn't actually in this picture i now realize, but these kids are darling too.

i have lots of photos of leslie and miranda. this one is a classic.
they could always make each other laugh. wasn't this at aa's wedding? this is the thanksgiving of 1996. miranda and les were sick together on a couple of holidays.


last christmas.
always with a bunch of cousins. or holding a child.
how did arden stay so clean?
this was the day leslie won three first place awards and one second place at the music competition when she was in ninth grade.






so many great times and memories. i love you leslie, you cannot possibly know how much. hope you have a very happy birthday. you are a continual joy to me.
