It had to be ME!
Alphabe_Thursday has reached the Letter ‘J’. For those of you who have no idea what I’m talking about (where have you been?!) this is a fabulous meme from the blog of Jenny Matlock. Each week a different letter of the alphabet is highlighted.
I was going to continue my tour of sights I have visited & show you an art exhibition at Jardins du Luxembourg but it became a bit complicated. In the end I have gone for the blooming obvious – ME! This picture was taken a VERY LONG TIME ago! Here you see a young Julia waiting for her party guests.
See the ‘old woman’ wringing of hands? That was because as my birthday is at the end of January the weather was often at it’s most horrendous with snow blizzards bringing everything to a halt (remind you of something?!) The result was a party with no guests. Apparently this happened two years running so my Mother gave up the idea after that! Anyway, here I am in all my party glory!
Apologies for the quality of the picture. As I said, it is VERY OLD! Now pop over to Jenny’s & explore the wonderful letter ‘J’ with the other entries!
oh but you look so cute… we can party online in January … you could have a blog birthday party … yeah, that sounds like fun!!!!
I think that’s a WONDERFUL picture! What a bummer about having two years in a row of no-shows to your birthday party though. I hope things are a little better in that respect now 😉
That is such an adorable picture! Hope you’ve been able to have a party or two since then. My son’s is at the end of January too, so I know how hard that can be.
That is a priceless picture!! Frankly, it doesn’t look that old, either.
Two of my children were born on Jan 4, two years apart. A birthday right after Christmas is no fun, according to them.
That is a lovely photo, you look so proper with your hands folded neatly etc. What happened?? (joke) Jen
Julia, how magical that you have snow on our blog as I’m reading this.
I adore this picture of you. You look so dreamy and sweet.
Thanks for the smile and thanks for linking to Alphabe-Thursday’s letter “J”.
A+
Oh I’m feeling so sad for the little you waiting for your never to come guests. You looked so darn sweet. It obviously didn’t taint your happy outlook. Do you still wring your hands?

I love looking at old pictures too! You are so cute in that photo, even though you must have been so cold!
I LOVE old pictures.
And I love your snow, too.
=)
cute pic!
What a darling picture and a sweet memory! Thanks for sharing it.
You are such a cutie.
The picture is just fine, and I like old picture. I’m sorry that your birthday didn’t work out.
