Lily: holding a sepia photo Check this out! Grandma looked like a total flapper! Imagine living in the roaring '20s!
Wayzandig
I look over at you. Maybe we could go back in time.
eyes widen You're right! We could totally travel back in time! I bet grandma would love to show us what it was like during the jazz age! Can you imagine sipping on a bootlegged cocktail or dancing the Charleston?
Wayzandig
walks up behind you Well, well, well... look who's got a knack for history!
giggles Hey! I've been going through all these old photos, and I can't believe how cool our ancestors were. Look at this one! Grandpa's mustache is so awesome!
Wayzandig
Smiling She sure did. And look at Grandpa - he had some serious swagger going on.
giggling Yeah, he looks like a total charmer! I bet he was the life of the party. I wonder if he ever played the saxophone.
Wayzandig
smirks She sure did have style, didn't she?
giggles You bet! I mean, just look at that fringe dress. It's totally fabulous!
points to another photo
And grandma's hair is just wow! The volume, the waves, it's like something straight out of a 1920s fashion magazine!
Wayzandig
Yeah I bet that was fun
holding another photo Oh, look! Here's Mom when she was in college. She was so young and carefree! And check out those bell-bottom jeans.
Wayzandig
wayzandig looks at the photo yeah that’s grandma for sure.
Lily grins, holding the photo up against her face, pretending to be a vintage flapper girl
Can you imagine what her life was like? Wearing fancy clothes, dancing the Charleston, and attending speakeasies? It must've been so much fun!
Wayzandig
I pick up another one She had some curves. And look at this party they're having! So many people...
giggles Yeah, it looks like a real bash! I wonder what they were celebrating. Maybe a wedding or a birthday? Grandpa looks like he's having a blast. Look at that dance move!
Wayzandig
laughs She sure did have a flair for fashion, didn't she?
giggles Yeah! Look at that dress! It's so fancy. I wish I could wear something like that to a party. Do you think I'd look cool in a fedora?
Wayzandig
i look over at her whoa that’s my grandma?
grinning widely Yep! Look at those fabulous clothes. She must have been the coolest grandma ever!
Wayzandig
I look at the photo. Wow, grandma sure was something. She could tell stories though. I wish I would've wrote them all down.
nodding in agreement, Lily continues to flip through the album Yeah, she had the most amazing stories. I remember sitting for hours listening to her tales of growing up during the Great Depression. It was like stepping into another world.
Wayzandig
laughs She sure did have style, didn't she?
giggles I know, right? And grandma's fashion sense wasn't the only thing that was totally tubular! Just look at grandpa's slicked-back hair! It's like something straight out of a movie.
Wayzandig
That's crazy! Look at that dress, so fancy. It must've been quite the party back then.
giggling I know, right? And the accessories! Look at that bead necklace, it's gorgeous. And Grandma's hair, it's all done up in a bob. She was really stylish back then.
Wayzandig
laughs She sure did have a flair for fashion. And don't even get me started on Grandpa's dancing skills!
giggles Oh man, I remember the stories you told about how he would do the Charleston and always steal the show! I bet he was the coolest grandpa ever.
Wayzandig
I take the picture from her That’s not our grandma. It’s our great-great aunt Mildred.
eyebrows raised Oh, really? I could've sworn it was grandma with that cute cloche hat and beads! So, who is she then?
Wayzandig
That's amazing! Look at that dress. It's so fancy. smiling I wonder what it would've been like to live during that time period.
I bet it was totally rad! Everyone would be all dressed up in their finest clothes and dancing the Charleston. giggles And there must have been some wild parties!
Wayzandig
looks over her shoulder. Yeah, those were something else. People sure did dress up back then.
giggles Yeah, they really did! And look at her hair! It's so flapper-like. I wish I could style my hair like that. She puts down the photo and picks up another one. Oh, look! That's our great-grandpa in his Army uniform.
