My long braids, 1979

This picture was made at Anne Flavia's first wedding.  She married Larry Harrison in our back yard at 6633 Campana.  I think the year was 1979. 

 I still have on of my long braids that were cut off later that year.

Anne continued to work in the shop with me for a good while.  We enjoyed working together, at that time my shop was on 8th avenue in south Fort Worth.

Margaret and Hunter

Here are some shots of Margaret with our friend Hunter Tapscott.  He often came to our house at 6633 Campana and cooked for us during the kids' teen years.  The torte in the lower picture was one of his creations.  It had seven layers and was decorated with almonds.  He also made a similar confection when Margaret graduated medical school.  I think it involved raspberries and Grand Marnier.

After a year or so at 4404 Wabash in a rent house, I found a way to buy us a new house from a builder located in southwest Fort Worth.  It was a four bedroom house with 2 bathrooms, a 2-car garage and central heat and air.  We moved in January 1972 and the kids went to Wedgewood schools.  Margaret went to Westcreek Elementary.  Anne could walk to school at Southwest High School.

I planted the sweet gum tree that turned fiery red and gold every fall.

About 1990 after the garage conversion.  I painted the brick white and the doors red.
