Its Funky Foto Flashback! And look what i found in my little box of memories!
ay ay ay....
Its the ghost of elementary school fashions past. Ok, Rhiannon looks great. She was an early bloomer. I however, am wearing this oversized jean jacket (I think this was originally my dad's) decked out in buttons and check out those socks! My mom sewed those plastic charms on my socks and I thought they were sooooooo cool! Who wears socks with those shoes? I think this was inspired by a certain ZZ Top video. Lets not even get into what was going on with my hair - it was a crimper gone wild! And finally, my hair bow - probably another one of my mom's creations by my prompting. I wonder if she ever thought those things would end up looking as silly as they do? Oh well, she was a good sport about it and would make any article of clothing or accessory that I asked her to (AND she worked full time and overtime most weeks). What a devoted mom! As for my dad? I've been reminded that I owe him a jean jacket. Hmmm... Father's Day is around the corner.
Is self deprecation your favorite way to encite giggles? Do you have some embarrassing picture of your sister who consequently bailed out on you for babysitting last weekend? Were the 70's or 80's cruel to you? If you said 'yes' to any of these questions then you would enjoy playing Funky Foto Flashback!

Is your hair crimped or are those spiral curls?
I am really glad my parents didn't take very many photos of us when we were pre-teens/teens. They'd be scary, for sure.
I think you look adorable! Straight outta Full House baby! :)
Love the side pony tail! You look so 80's! You were so fashionable back then!
I think we were rocking out to Tiffany when this was taken. At least this is better than the horse one. And come on, you look adorable!
OMG, the socks/shoes! Love. And your hair is the living end. I was cursed with flat hair in my youth. You, though, look adorable!
Wow-wee! I remember those days. And I'm digging the carpet too! I will have to pull up some old photos myself - this would be fun.
You were stylin! Your hair almost doesn't look real. I'm thinking we should start a side ponytail movement for moms, who's with me?
Oh man, you were AWESOME! I want you to know that one of my New Year's resolutions was to give up the word awesome in blog comments but that picture is just too awesome to not use the word.
I too, fell victim to the over sized scrunchy and jean jacket. Let's stick together and maintain the coolness of the look. Maybe they'll film a remake of Kids Incorporated and you can be on it?!?
Oh my goodness. I forgot about the appliques on shirts and jackets! This brings me back.
That's a lot of flair on that jacket!
