MEMORIES#3 - From My Christmas Family Tree Ornaments

If you missed the post from a few days ago about "My Christmas Family Tree Ornaments - Scrapbook Style" then click HERE to view.

I decided that I will share a few of these pictures each day until Christmas - they will either be MEMORIES or STORIES.  (Memories are obviously something that happened in my lifetime & Stories are taken from pictures that I did not experience but rather heard the descriptions of the events that those pictures portray)


MEMORY#3 From My Christmas Family Tree Ornaments

The live lion cub at the mall - In the picture above my little sister is on the left and I am on the right.  In the 1980's there was a little temporary photo kiosk in the mall where you could have your picture taken with a live lion cub!!  This would never happen in today's society with all of the liability that would be necessary for this photographer.  The picture was taken at the exact moment that the cub started flexing her claws INTO MY LEGS!!  You can see by the expression on my face that I was shocked & did not know what to do to stop the pain.  (Actually there were only a few scratches - no real skin penetration - but still very scary).  My sister was oblivious & didn't want the photographer to take the cub away (my little sister was in her own little world at that age - hahaha).  This is a great Memory Ornament.
