Photo-A-Day: A Self-Portrait, Makes You Happy

I decided to combine two Photos-A-Day today: A Self-Portrait, and Makes You Happy. This is my beloved Dad and me, on my wedding day in 2001. He died just two years later, but I think about him every day, and still miss him. Thanks for everything, Dad.






Oh, and one more photo that Makes Me Happy -- Stuff on my cat, Skinny G. She sleeps the sleep of the innocent:

  2. The photo of you and your Dad....with matching smiles, I see....is pricelss.  Thanks for sharing.
    Our kitty looks just like Skinny G., but no way would he stay still and pose as a secretary!  We love him, though and he has his own affectionate personality.
    Have a nice weekend.

  5. What a lovely picture of you and your father. You both look so happy.
    The kitty photo is so cute. That is one sleepin' kitty to let you put all that stuff on her.  She is such a beautiful color.

  6. I can see where you got that beautiful smile!  My father passed in 2004 and I still talk out loud to him at times.  The cat is such a beautiful color of grey.  Imagine the cat awoke when you tried to place a stapler on him.

  9. You and your father look so happy here. I am sorry to learn that he passed. He looks like a lovely man. And you look gorgeous in your wedding gown. 

    What a sweet and tolerant kitty you have. I doubt mine would let me do that.

  12. I love these pictures. Your cat is so sweet.

    My own dad died 6 months after my wedding - it's so good to have that memory of him.
