Funny how old family movies can be treasures… it makes me wonder what images, if any, will be cherished by today’s kids. In all, there is less than 2 hours of quality movies of my family over a 15 year period (1966-1981). For my kids, I had a video camera, and took lots of everyday shots of them. Still, today videos are so easy to make that I don’t think many clips will become cherished memories like the one in this video has become for me and my family.
Under a minute long, yet such powerful memories are stirred by watching it for my family.
This is Riverside, Ca. Salerno Drive probably December 1969 (You can see the Christmas lights on the eaves of the garage. My grandparents moved from that house less than two years later.
I think my uncle Gary had gotten boxing gloves for Christmas. Not sure why my mom sparred with my aunt Judy, but glad she did. My grandma was probably 5 years younger in this video, than I am today. Too bad there is no sound, my dad must have been behind the camera – I can only imagine the things he was saying trying to egg on the fighters.

Excellent clip! I love your mommy!!! ♥ *★ Great job, love it. Dear Joseph,
I love watching old movies, to see me as a little boy, and, to see my
daddy… I miss him so much…I remember those good old moments days.
Excuse my sadness. A big hug from Italy : )
This is great. I’ll watch it whenever I’m mad @ my kid. This woman truly
inspires me. Hope this goes viral.
@funch357 Thanks… me too. :)
@GagaManMusic My Grandpa loved using 8mm film from the mid ’60s to the
early 80’s. When I was a kid I would always ask him to get out the
projector to show the films. I’m certain that those early days are why I’ve
always loved making videos. At least you have one now. :)
Thumbs up! They had stylish hair in the 60s. =^)
@TheVerticalMischief Since my mom has always been a dainty woman, I imagine
you are correct.
@TheVerticalMischief It’s all good. :)
