One outfit, Two boys!

This is a picture of Spencer when he was close to a year old. Eric and I found this outfit and loved it! Reminded us of the old pictures we'd see of the newstand boys in there knickers and hats. It's a bit difficult to see the hat, but he's trying to pull it off. Eric took pictures of Spencer in this outfit surrounded by quilts that had been made for him. This would have been 1996.

Here is Neal in the same outfit, minus the hat. We were so happy and suprised to see it come back to us in a tote that has made it's rounds from boy to boy in the Kern, Duncan and Nelson households..that's 11 boys I believe.. I'm not sure if they've all worn it, but still it has held up pretty well. Eric took these pictures as well of Neal.

Here are the two brother's together. Hmmmm wonder if Neal will wear this same white shirt and tie when he is 13?

One more shot of Neal in the timeless outfit. What stories the threads could tell.
