| First Day of Kindergarten |
Lets take a look at this picture. It's my first day of kindergarten. The first day of my education. It's a pretty big day. I mean, it's the first time I'm going to see a lot of the kids that I'm going to graduate high school with. I think I did graduate with about 80% of my kindergarten class. So it's important that I start off the school year right. White socks with black shoes? Really Mom? I was five. I didn't know how to dress myself back then. Have a heart and at least match the socks with the shoes. And they were ankle socks. With BOWS on them. YUCK! Added to the fact that I mixed pink in my backpack with a bright red umbrella. At least the umbrella goes with the dress. But that backpack needs to go....

| Birthday Party |
And here we are at someone's birthday party. I'm a sailor. Ok. It happens. But what really stands out to me in this picture is not the two cute little kids. It's the BEER that clearly takes center stage here. Apparently that's what Miller Lite looked like back in 1988. But really? It's a picture of two little kids (me and my cousin). At least move the beer can out of the way. Really Mom?

| Look at that smile! |
And finally, we have this one. I was a cute kid. And at least my mom got the outfit right this time. The pink was cute. Very classy. And the shoes, well, at least I don't have socks on this time. Clearly I'm very excited about whatever. Or maybe the GIANT BOW on my head it pulling up the corners of my mouth. It's like a mini-face lift! Oh for the love of BOWS! AND OMG I JUST NOTICED THE BACKGROUND PICTURE! That picture must have disappeared. They dressed me up in a red Santa suit like get-up for fun??? Really Mom??? REALLY?!?!
There. Now you all know why I was traumatized as a child. The end.
Side note: Just to be clear I was really bored and this is my sad attempt at humor :-)
Very cute and comical!!!
ReplyDeleteHaha that's awesome! I had the same thing done to me, it's a universal thing. I definitely had some bad late eighties early 90's clothes.
ReplyDeleteLOL. My duaghters are around your age. Let's just say we fell victim to the trends at the time. I have one pic of my oldest daughter where she is wearing Hammer pants and sporting a DJ Tanner side pony tail. It is pure awesomeness. And apparently, many of us wanted our children to be sailors. Ahoy, bitches.
ReplyDeleteYou are so cute! And for the record there is nothing wrong with white socks and black patent leather shoes :) And every baby needs a red velvet fur trimmed Christmas dress. And what blasphemy to denounce hair bows!
ReplyDeleteHey toots, you are adorable!
ReplyDeleteI'm enjoying your posts, your style, your sense of humor. Nice to meet cha.
