this one! This is a picture of my older brother and two sisters, Butch, Dell and Faye. It looks like it was taken Christmas of 1957, just two months before I was born. My Dad was stationed in France and this picture is in the apartment they lived in. Dell is holding the Dolly. Wait, this can't be 1957, does Faye look like she is 3 years old? Maybe she does...anyway, I have always thought this picture was of Christmas right before I was born. :)
