I took the photo, so you don&#8217;t get to see me at 9, but that&#8217;s my dad on the left, my grandmother in the middle, and my grandfather on the right. Yes, my dad put on a tie for Christmas; not sure about my grandfather, who usually dressed up as well. As was often the case, one light in the chandelier is out. They always burned out on a different schedule. And you may not be able to see it well, but those curtains have a kind off old english town street on them. I always thought they were very odd, but if I you go back to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.chez-oswell.org\/blog\/2010\/09\/time-and-food\/\" target=\"_blank\">this<\/a> photo, you can see that they were replaced with an even worse (in my humble opinion) floral print (although time may have altered the photo a bit).<\/p>\n<p>The other interesting note (to me) is that at this time my dad wasn&#8217;t using arms on his wheelchair. I&#8217;m not sure when he put them on for good, but I think it was fairly near this time. And of course, there&#8217;s the serious over-the-top 1970s mustache he had, but then everyone did at that time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is Christmas Dinner in 1972.
