I found one marked "Baby Maximus" today...
These photos were taken the day after we got him. He weighed just three pounds! Nowadays, he's tippin' the scales at twelve. :-)
Then I came across one marked, "Baby Maddox", that had a hysterical photo of my newborn nephew on it...
I guess he wasn't feeling the photographer that day. ;-)
Another disc contained photos of my Mom, my brother and me- that were taken a few years back...
Man! That was such an easy hair-do to maintain...hmmmmmm......
This next image, found on a disc marked, "Hermitage" (the street on which our first house sat) really brought the memories rushing back...
It always happened around this time, every year. One day, fire-hued leaves suddenly painted the ground outside my art room windows. I looked forward to that day every time Summer would start to wind down. It was such a pretty sight. Prettier than any work of art I could ever create, that's for sure. I distinctly remember snapping this photo so that I could relive that special Fall day forever. I'm so glad I found it today!
The last photo I was happy to find was on a disc marked "Wedding". It was taken the day Kevin and I got married...
It's hard to believe almost six years have passed since this one was snapped!
What's that phrase?
"Fun flies when you're having the time of your life". :-)
Hope you're having a fun-filled week!

LOVE the pillow and the puppy. great blog btw!
Cute post! I love your pup!! that baby is adorable.
OMG!! cute BABIES!!
It's also funny that your nephew was on his Mommy's shoulder, and your puppy was resting on your shoulder!! Too cute!
I like the bob on you, Layla - alot.
My favorite photo was your nephew. ADORABLE!!!
I am loving that photo out the back window. I want that window on the world. Your mom is just adorable! And what a sweet wedding photo. I love running across old photos!
It is always a nice surprise to run across old pictures ~ it usually happens to me when I am in the middle of cleaning something and I end up on my butt looking through them and smiling at the memories. Baby Max is sooo cute!
Isn't it great being able to revisit the past. The cushion is so sweet!

Lovely photos Layla!!
I just love coming across old photos...whether in CD form, in a forgotten album, etc. They just bring the memories flooding back, and more often than not a smile to my face. Thanks for sharing your pictures. (Our yard is currently peppered with these lovely little yellow flowers that fell off a tree outside my son's room...it is a welcome reminder that fall is coming!)

Layla,
loved your trip down memory lane in photos. That poochie is too cute.
Isn't it so much fun to find old almost forgotten photos?
Thanks for sharing your trip down memory lane :)
Great photos! I had to laugh at Maximus, though. 12 pounds?! Our Maximus was 16 pounds on the day we got him--at 9 weeks. He's now 145. :)
What wonderful pictures. Maximus is so cute, the baby is cute, you hair style is cute... everything is just cute.
I love finding older pictures that I haven't seen in a while, it's fun to look back at what once was.
Great pillow!
sweet, charming, & beautiful pics!
love going down memory lane, and reliving moments of pure joy.
have a wonderful day!
blessings,

Pictures on discs? I see I need to join the 21st century. Love seeing your pics....and the puppy is too much cuteness!
Hi Layla,
I love finding treasures like that. That was a little "gift" for you.
My 6 year anniversary is coming up too (10/10- we chose a date we could both remember).
Hugs,
Barb
Maximus had the cutest puppy eyes!
Super cute puppy pictures!! Mine were once cute puppies too, oh how they grow into such beastly creatures! Ha!
Greta pictures. I always love looking at old photos and even not so old photos. Things (especially when you have little ones) change so quickly. It's fun to look back.
I love looking at old pictures! I keep a giant case full of cd's with all my memories burned on them. That view outside the old window is amazing, and I want to see some more wedding pictures!! It's been three years this month that we've been married, I should post a few from ours, too. It's funny it seems like yesterday, but we look like babies in all of them!
I love finding photos like that..especially of my children. I forget how little they were and those photos always make me cry. Love the photo outside your art studio...gorgeous.
Oh Layla~
I always LOVE perusing your blog! I follow more adoption blogs than anything... but being an interior redesigner and home stager myself, I was THRILLED when I happened across your blog one day (months and months ago!!) and I've been hooked ever since! Your down-to-earth spirit and happy heart are so evident and make you a joy to follow!! Your witty humor always cracks me up, too!
Great post today. Love all those 'memory lane' photos. And the one of your nephew CRACKED ME UP! LOL!! At first I thought, "what a precious photo...I don't get it?!"...but then I seen 'THE FINGER'!! Too funny!!! :)
Have a blessed day!

OMGoodness!! Those puppy pics are ADORABLE!! And the baby pic... I just died laughing! Thanks! I always appreciate a good laugh. :)
Oh my goodness! Is it weird that I got all teary eyed because I remember when Burger was that little? He weighed in at just two pounds when we took him home and now he's a hefty nine pounder. Sheesh! They're so cute when they're little- plus they have those cute floppy ears. Those were the days.
xo,
Sherry (& Burger)

Cute puppy! :) Love that pillow!
~Ah! Gorgeous pics!
I can't believe how cute lil' Max is! Love your haircut in the family photo! I'm so inspired but not brave enough to try that length yet.
~Many blessings, ~Melissa :)
Layla I LOVE your hair in the picture with your Mom and Brother -so cute and stylish!
Nothing like finding an old photo ... it's almost like being back there.
Fabulous photos!
I found all of our old family dvd's on the weekend and the kids watched themselves for hours. Don't you just hate hearing your own voice though!! Haha.

Awww! The baby Max photos are so adorable! The rest are wonderful as well...love your photography! Also, I so enjoyed your hall reveal! It turned out fabulously! What a difference those charming walls make! Two thumbs up!
Love that puppy!!
I haven't popped in here in a while, but the new blog layout looks FAB Layla! Great job.
That was so much fun.....it really is amazing how time seems to speed up the older we get....seeing your older photos...makes me want to go through mine....LOL! That pillow is just adorable too!Have a great weekend
Your hair is pretty the way it is now, but that other cut is ADORABLE. That's the kind of hairdo I'd have if I could. Great pictures, all.
