Today's #photorestoration features this portrait of my father on his first birthday - December 30th, 1954. Today, he would be turning 69. The second photo is the only snapshot of my father and I together in Stuttgart, Germany, when I was a few months old in 1974. I would meet him again twelve years later.

Today's #photorestoration features this snapshot from 1950 in Fresno, California. Seated at the head of the table is Mauro Papagni, an Italian farmer who immigrated from Italy in the early 1900s, and to his right is his wife Angelina (who I remember fondly as Great-Grandma Papagni). They are seated at the table with their kids - the two little ones are my dad and Aunt Sandy seated with their mother (my Grandma Julie). Once I cleaned-up and colored the photo, I recognized what they were having for dinner. Angelina made a supper of macaroni with homemade tomato sauce and a salad with bread. I grew up eating this exact same meal every Sunday evening with Grandma Papagni and the whole extended family, sometimes reaching 25+ members in attendance - it was such a big deal we were even featured in the Fresno Bee. She prepared that meal for her growing family for over 50 years. Amazing. A tradition I'll treasure in my heart forever.

Today's #photorestorations feature these snapshots from Christmas 1952 in Bellaire, Texas. My great-grandparents sent these photos to my granddad who was in the infantry fighting in the Korean War. They kept the original slides - which I recently developed at the home studio. In the first image you can see my great-grandmother Mae-Etta reading a Christmas card my granddad sent for the holidays. Seated at the head of the table is my great-grandfather John Lester Yates. The kids at the foot of the table are my Uncle Rusty and Aunt Pam. The second image is of my great-grandparents with Rusty and Pam. The third is of my great-grandma and my grandmom, newly-married to my grandad.

Today's #photorestoration features this snapshot from Christmas Day 1965. That's my granddad and grandmom with their two kids, my mother and uncle, at my great-grandparent's house in Bellaire, Texas. This particular image was in a photo album that belonged to my great-grandmother, one of a couple my mother inherited. I scanned the original image about fifteen years ago at 96 dpi, before I knew what I was doing. With this #restoration, I upgraded the image to 762 dpi, and with some touching-up in Photoshop, the result is much more clear image. Working on this latest promotion has been a fun trip down memory lane.

Today's #photorestoration features this studio shot from 1977. That's me with my folks in our first family portrait - I'm 3 years old. I think my folks did a couples portrait earlier that year or the year before completely decked-out in disco gear - butterfly collars, high-heeled boots, lots of hairspray, you get the idea. If I find it, I'll restore that one for some laughs.

Today's #photorestoration features these two snapshots from Christmas Day 1969. In the first shot is my grandfather with his three kids - my father and two aunts. My father - the oldest of the three kids - was five days from turning 16. The second shot features my paternal great-grandparents, James Clifford and Mattie Lee Jordon. They got married in 1927 and stayed together till they passed on.
