Back when we were young. Pics of us as kids!
My bestest ever Christmas present when I was 6 years old! Taken in snowy Scotland.

Are always to be found between the hooves of horses
For never will cowards fall down there.'

[quote=""Alaric""]I'm the same, the only thing that has changed is my hair colour - it's gotten a lot darker as I've got older. When I was young I had very light brown hair but now I have near-black. Also, my eyes have changed colour apparently ... mum said they were green when I was born, they're now blue.[/quote]
I was very blonde when I was born...now just brown.

EC - is that a cowgirl outfit? I ask because I had a cowgirl vest decorated with fake cowhide, white leather fringe, and metal stars to go with my cowgirl boots! I think I was 3 or 4 years old. Anyway, I loved the little vest SO much that my mother saved it for me and I keep it in a box with a little skirt she made for me.
After I outgrew the vest, I got another cowgirl outfit with red boots, red denim jeans, a red gingham shirt and of course, a red straw cowgirl hat. By then I was 7 years old and crazy about riding horses.

I'm loving all the pictures! Boswell, in all that pink you'd still be really trendy as a little girl today!
Leyland - a cowboy outfit! No dollies for me for Christmas! I would have loved a toy 'wigwam' - as they were called then to go with it, but had to make do with the clothes horse instead! Sadly I no longer have that outfit. How lovely that your mother saved yours!
