January 21, 1974

35 years ago today:
(Bonus points if you can tell which one's my husband.)




If I had known him in the first grade, I'm sure I'd have found him quite irresistable.





And...the 17-yr-old boy I fell in love with:


Happy birthday, Love.

Is it crazy thinking that you've now known Matt over half his life???

Happy Birthday, Matt! (LOVE the sweater)

Two things:
1) In the twin pic Matt is the one on the right (Mike is on the left). What do I win?

2) I had to ride in a drivers ed car with that 17 yr old you 'fell in love with'. He looks innocent but looks can be deceiving!!

Oh, Charity, you don't know early 90's fashion when you see it!!

Brother b--I'll have to get back with you on your prize. (That is, IF you actually guessed right.)

Glad you survived driver's ed with Matt; I've been reaping the "benefits" of his driving skills for the past 17 years now. (whew!)

brother_barabbas said...

IF? Are you indicating that YOU don't know for sure, or are you trying to cause me to second guess myself? I've known them too long to be wrong (I think).

Also, remember who taught Matt all he knows about driving......

Kati said...

Oh, YOU've known them too long, huh? Well, it happens that in some early pictures even their own mother can't tell without cheating. (She wrote on most of the pictures who was on the right or left) So, because she was so diligent, yes, I do happen to know for sure which one is Matt. (But I'm not telling yet.)

JanAl said...

Yep! That is exactly how I remember him from high school! (last pic)
Happy birthday!

i would also guess that matt is the one on the right, but i'm only looking at the noses :0

as for fashion - did the 90's even HAVE a defining style?

Kati said...

In case anyone's still wondering, Matt is on the left.

So I guess I'll have to keep the prize for myself.

brother_barabbas said...

Kati, did you get up at 3:47 am just to tell us that?

Kati said...

Oh man, I couldn't sleep, lying awake worrying that others might be agonizing over not knowing which one was Matt.

Dude, the clock is like 3 hours off.

Diana said...

Hey - Matt is the one on the left -OK that is SO not fair, because that is what I was going to guess, I just didn't get on here until you let the cat out of the bag. :)
Happy birthday to Matt (belated) I hope you did something nice for him like make him cheesecake.....

Kati said...

Oh Di, I believe you. Really.

Cheesecake--great idea! Actually there's ONE piece left in the fridge--WHAT SHOULD I DO?? :) :)

Diana said...

Send it to your friend named Diana! And let her try to decide what to do with it. :)
