Ha, great comparison! My dad's skin was very dark, too, and we think it has to do with some Native American blood back in the geneology. He used to get ridiculously dark for a white guy in the Summer! My skin is much lighter but has an olive tone that I've always appreciated. ;)
yep - lovely tribute! It's bizzare how genes work - Cleggy and I are both paler than pale and sons #1 and #2 are exactly the same. Son #3 on the otherhand - positively olive! Am sure people have doubted his parentage! My mums line has much darker skin - gutted that I didn't get any of that! happy week fee x
The roller skating king himself! Happy fathers' day xx

The difference in skin tone is too funny! Hope he had a great father's day! Love the picture of you both together, cherish that one!
ReplyDeleteYour dad must be outside a lot. I don't get very dark either. Your so lucky to have him.
