Betty Williamson Got some good sibling action going on in this one!
Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder I'm mad and out of there
Larry Littlefield Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder I'm sure it was something Don Littlefield said
Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder Larry Littlefield probably
Larry Littlefield Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder you can tell, he is still digging it in... By the way, where is he to "defend" himself?
Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder Larry Littlefield I've been wondering
Don Littlefield I am still here listening to what is being said about me. It probably was my fault look at that attitude I have on. That is in uncle Jacks back yard I think.
Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder Don Littlefield yes it is

Larry Littlefield Not sure but I think this is the front of the ranch, before the hand rails on the porch. But I can't figure the house in the other photo, so you may be right. I only remember a couple trips to the irrigated farm north of Portales. I don't remember the ...See More
Betty Williamson Definitely not the ranch...we never had a door like that. I think Sherry is probably right on this one, although I don't remember their house in Portales.
Larry Littlefield Several years before your time Betty, but you've seen lots of the pictures on the pouch. Your door hasn't moved, it it directly up the steps?
Betty Williamson Nope...it's to the side.
Gary Williamson I agree with Betty on the door type - the doors at the Ranch were old before us and none of them like this.
Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder No it was at fred's house. There is also an indoor photo of their kitchen

Larry Littlefield Is there any reference to their address in Portales before the farm"
Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder I think it was in a dairy farm, really close to town.
Larry Littlefield is this it or is this the other, or were there even two separate places??
Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder Larry Littlefield I think only one place. Maybe he just worked at the dairy

Larry Littlefield This one looks most like I remember them. In most all the other photos they are dressed fancy for dinners.
Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder Yes it looks normal
Carolyn Graham Wow! What a great, great photo!
Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder I still really miss them. I wish I had listened to more to their stories of life...
Carolyn Graham ...to be continued....❤️
Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder Carolyn Graham yes one day I hope to see them again.
Larry Littlefield I tried to write some of their stories, but don.t remember enough.
Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder Larry Littlefield wish you did.

Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder The one was brownie. He was killed by another dog in ther porch. While I watched. Mama was peeling potatoes in the kitchen. But the time she ran there it was too late.
Susan Meister no wonder you like chihuahuas
Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder Susan Meister our next dog was a chihuahua
Carolyn Graham If only Larry had raised that little dog’s mug up a tiny bit higher....

Denise Burnett Wonder what was in the box?
Larry Littlefield Christmas in the Blue Room on the ranch. A horrible day. I made an ass of my self, cause I got two Dinky Toys tractors and Donnie wouldn't trade me something he got. Donnie got a football.. We (I don't remember which) threw the ball for a pass in the blue Room and broke the ceiling light shade.
Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder Why was it the blue room?
Larry Littlefield It was Pa & Ma's living room, before any expansion. I don't know even when it was blue. Before Jim & Nancy built their extension I think. I sorta remember it light green at some point.
Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder Larry Littlefield I remember the light green very pale, but I also remember it being the blue room!! I knew it was their living room.
Betty Williamson Betting the light green came with my mom. She loved light green and probably repainted that when they added on their end to the house. I never knew it was the Blue Room. Love it.
Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder Betty Williamson could be sounds reasonable
Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder Interesting story... do you know what was in my box?
Larry Littlefield No, you had cooties then, remember. hehehe But you did get a lot of dolls. It might be the year you got the easy bake oven, but it was bigger than that box.
Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder Larry Littlefield I look happy enough just to have the box
Larry Littlefield I agree about the doors Sherry, Gary and Betty. I think they always were like this one was in the blue room. Ma liked the windows. The old one where the garage is now was the only one I remember with panels in it.
Gary Williamson That is where the bathroom is now between those bedrooms, correct?
I remember remainders of steps on the outside of wall there before garage.
Betty Williamson Gary, I think this is in what we called our playroom. It had a door going out on the north before we knocked that wall out and extended it.
Larry Littlefield yes to both, but different doors. Your bathroom used to be the "back door" on the east wall where the garage is. All those photos on the steps are there. This room is the old living room between Betty's room and the older bathroom. The wall where the door is, was taken out to expand the room y'all know now.
Gary Williamson Yup Betty - I agree pic is the “playroom” door. I just wasn’t sure when that other door had become a bathroom.
Larry Littlefield I think it was the same remodel for when Nancy came, so they could have separate bathrooms. I just don't remember what it looked like inside that door. Maybe that room(I still think of it as Betty's room) just had an outside door. It was Jim's room then.
A hundred years of remodeling ....
Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder Is that the door that is in the side of the carpeted room?
Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder I know it was the Pa"s living room
Larry Littlefield if it is the same door( I doubt it) then yes, it was moved to the side when the room was expanded.
Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder Larry Littlefield always use what you have
Gary Williamson Yes Sherry - the existing door on north of the old living room was moved to west wall when that room was enlarged. P
Larry Littlefield Gary do you guys remember that project? and when was the garage project?
Gary Williamson Same time. I was was in drivers ed
Gary Williamson So I was 9th maybe, Betty 11th, stew 12th?
Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder Larry Littlefield it has been awhile
Gary Williamson So 77 to 78ish.
Gary Williamson We had driving practice after school, and I was dropped off at house once while the construction was in progress.
Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder Gary Williamson good to remember the association
Larry Littlefield OK, I was at ENMU 67-71, so there summers 59-67 I think.2 years before Pa died, cause I remember he made breakfast for me and I rototill-ed his garden as the first project every year
Larry Littlefield He would saw off a few slices of a frozen package of hamburger from the freezer and cook them with a few eggs. Seemed like he liked really strong coffee too.
Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder Larry Littlefield cool memory
Betty Williamson Mother said Pa often ate part or all of a raw onion with breakfast, too.
Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder Betty Williamson I remember that
Larry Littlefield The hamburger wasn't all that burned either, pretty rare. I do remember something else on the plate but had forgotten what it was. Not sure I ate many of the onions.
Sherry Lee Littlefield Snyder Larry Littlefield I know I didn't eat the onions. I remember half a grapefruit for breakfast sometimes. And the wonderful washpan full of jerky.
Betty Williamson This answers one question. Room was changed and garage added in 12/1977. Good memory, Gary.
