This old photograph of Fats Domino and his family makes me think of Easter when I was a kid.

The look on Mrs. D's face is priceless!

I suppose that I would look that way after getting everybody dressed up and out the door!

I imagine Mrs D had plenty of help getting the children ready Aunt Bea !

Enjoying an Easter Egg Hunt
