The Rhoades Family Overalls

The overalls that Ava is wearing in these pictures are over 60 years old. She is the third generation to wear them proudly and have her picture taken in them. These pics are from August....and all the sunshine and pretty green foliage is making me wish for summer! :-) The overalls were originally purchased by my Grandmother Helen for my Uncle Dusty when he was 1 year old. They were then worn by my dad when he was 1, followed by my cousin Steve, then me and my sister when we were 18 months old. The third generation to wear them includes Steve's 4 children and now Ava. Next year, Miss Lyla will get her turn to model the overalls! It's a family tradition that we hope will continue on for quite sometime. The funny thing is that these overalls are distressed and very vintage looking.....and just like a pair of $35 overalls that I saw at Baby Gap last year. Moral of the story....every style comes back around at some point in time!!!
