Cleaned Up Pic of Mom In Her 20's

 This pic of Mom (Judy) would've been taken around 1967 or 1968 I believe.

Mom was going through cosmetology school at the time, and would be in that field for 15 years after graduation.

My sister Lori, brother Jeff, and I all grew up in and around "beauty salons," as they were called at the time.

Happy Birthday Mom!

It's been nearly 17 years since Mom left the planet. Here are a few photos of her in her younger days. I kind of like the celebratory mood in each, almost as if she were getting ready to go to her birthday party in each picture, and celebrating with her grandchildren in the last one.
