Me

Today's my birthday! And it's going to be a beautiful spring day... unlike 3 years ago when we had a snowstorm and we couldn't even go anywhere. We "partied" with Courtney and her parents last night, since they were coming to pick her up anyway, and they brought supper - yay!

I got a birthday email last night, too, that I found to be pretty interesting. It contained a photo from my junior prom... many, many years ago! I thought I'd share it with you. Aren't we lovelies??? (Thanks, Carol! Bet you didn't expect to see it here, did you?)


None of us had dates, so the four of us went together. I'm not going to tell you which one is me, although I'll admit I must've been pretty concerned about my hair getting messed up. ;) I wonder what it looked like under the scarf... I don't remember.

Then as I was trying to find where I'd saved the photo on my computer (doing that kind of thing while I'm on the phone is not recommended), I came across this photo:


That's also me. I don't know how old I was... maybe two or three. I guess I was pretty shy and didn't want to smile. My mom always called it my "bulldog" pose.

Okay, that's all ya get. I have much to do today, which I'll tell you about later..... !!!

Fun pictures! Are you wearing gloves, or a long sleeved dress, or some sort of arm warmers? :)

Great picture! Was your scarf holding your down or that big flip you had in the back holding up the scarf. No offense to your friends but I voted you best of show! Mark

Thanks, everybody!! :)

Jess, I'm pretty sure the dress was sleeveless, and I think I was wearing long gloves. Although my memory could be wrong. ;)

Mark, I don't remember what my hair was like, or even if I had it "done". I really don't think I had the 'flip' that was so popular back then, though. I'll have to dig around here for some more pics... I know I have some... somewhere. You guys have my curiosity up now!
