Show us your oldest family photo.

While I'm sure these are the three oldest in my photos, I'm not positive which one is the oldest. If I had to guess, I'd say that the last one is the most ancient. They were beginning to disintegrate, so I'm just happy to have them scanned and safe. Hooray for technology!
My great grandpop. This looks to be some kind of standard portrait. He looks so dignified!
My great grandpop and great grandma's wedding portrait.
My great grandpop in his uniform. Despite being a Ukrainian, he served in the Austrian army - which I found out was pretty common practice for people from poorer countries (like the Ukraine).

AUSTIN STORIES!
Major points for anyone who remembers this show. It was part of MTV's original 10 Spot line up. There was only a handful of episodes and then it just disappeared - probably to make room for more episodes of The Maxx and Singled Out. :( So after not seeing the show for almost 10 years, I happen upon the entire series for sale on eBay! And who was selling it? One of the stars of the show - Howard! That DVD was one of the happiest purchases of my life.
Did you order Girl Scout cookies this year? What kind?
I didn't actually order them, but I did buy some from outside of MicroCenter last week. Man, those Girl Scouts were like pushers! While I was standing there trying to decide which cookies I wanted (which was more like "which cookies do I want for Round 1 of cookie buying?"), there was one little girl jumping circles around me singing the praises of their cookie line-up. Thanks angel, but you're dealing with a season cookie vet here. I know ALL about these babies.
My haul included Samoas, Thin Mints and Trefoils. Hopefully they'll be aroundthis weekend so I can buy a box of Do-Si-Dos and Tagalongs (and more Samoas, Thin Mints....).
God, Girl Scout Cookies are like my crack cocaine.
