I Can't Believe I'm Doing This!

Today is Friday's Favorite Family Foto over at Pictures, Pots, and Pens hosted by Deborah. It gives participants a chance to showcase some of their family pictures. It's always a lot of fun!

OK, this first picture shows me in my 4th grade class when I attended Jones Elementary School in Hot Springs, Arkansas. Can you spot me??? I'm the third girl from the left on the bottom row. See the 6th boy over from the top right? He was my first boyfriend, Mitch. We used to walk on the playground holding hands. Would you believe that I met up with him, again, in college and we dated for a couple of months? Small world, huh? Don't you just love the clothes we all wore? Gotta love those knee socks and plaid pants! :)
Alright...close your eyes real tight and begin swaying gently from side to side. Imagine you're hearing REO Speedwagon sing "Can't Fight This Feeling". Yes, we're back in the 80's and it was some of the best times of my life! Here I am with my boyfriend of 2 very LONG years, Eddie...he was my date for our Jr.-Sr. Prom. Oh, what a perfect little pair we made! LOL! Look how much taller he was than me...I was even wearing 2-inch heels! I had gotten mad at him right before we left my house because he was late picking me up! I love how he's barely touching my arm...and that look on his face is PRICELESS! I was trying so hard to appear happy! We broke up not long, afterwards. Sad, but true! Don't you just love those snazzy decorations? Eddie's leisure suit is, well...what can I say? Check out the collar on his shirt? How about my Farrah Fawcett hairstyle? Oh, this picture makes me laugh!
"Growing up is never easy. You can hold onto things that were. You wonder what's to come. But that night, I think we knew it was time to let go of what had been, and look ahead to what would be. Other days. New days. Days to come. The thing is, we didn't have to hate each other for getting older. We just had to forgive ourselves for growing up."~The Wonder Years

Have a fun and relaxing weekend! Big hugs to you all!♥
