Fandango’s Flashback Friday: April 2
Wouldn’t you like to expose your newer readers to some of your earlier posts that they might never have seen? Or remind your long term followers of posts that they might not remember? Each Friday I will publish a post I wrote on this exact date in a previous year. How about you? Why don’t you reach back into your own archives and highlight a post that you wrote on this very date in a previous year?

This post was published April 2, 2019 as an entry for the Photo a Day Challenge. Flashing back to happy times remembered in this post (when birthday parties were…normal) appealed to me more than flashing back to a 2020 pandemic post. This blog began as the keeper of memories….and today I revisit some funny ones.

Funny Faces
This post inspired by April photo a day challenge
Today’s prompt: Funny
When my kids were growing up, they had a birthday party every year they wanted one.
Several actually. One with family. One with friends. Sometimes a celebration at pre-school as well.
Why not? Another year. Another milestone or two.
Time for cake. Presents. Games.
Fun with friends.
One tradition…a group photo.
Squirmy party guests lined up on the couch.
The first take: Smile Say Cheese!
The second: Make A Funny Face! Make A Silly Face!
Always the favorite.
Little children making funny faces never disappoint.


They are so cute. 😊

Thanks! I still laugh at those memories. Our kids’ parties always accented silly business of all kinds and the party guests always loved this tradition. 🙂
