That is me, the short one on the left. I was born in 1983, so I am guessing that this was taken around 1985. My aunt Jeanie who is getting married next week (I’m the Maid of Honor) would be the one rocking the neon pink sweater and black skinny jeans. My uncle Peter, the one battling lung cancer is towards the center in the white and black plaid. My father is wearing the white polo shirt, and my mom is next to him in the white long sleeves and red vest.
Judging from our outfits it is really hard to tell what occasion this is, but I want to say it was Thanksgiving or Christmas. I hated wearing dresses so I was only forced into them on special occasions.
I love looking through other people’s old photographs. 😀 That is a fabulous picture just for the hair alone. I miss the 80s. Also, I am a bit older than you (born in 1977), but I had a little red dress very similar to the one you are wearing. My mom and brothers called me “Little Orphan Annie” whenever I wore it. 😀
Lovely photo, Diane!
It’s something to look back on photos and times….how people and times have moved on. Sometimes about the “good old times”. There is a beautiful spirit and energy in looking back at lovely times 🙂
Funny to see old times. It looks like the same kind of pictures anyone during that time might have tucked away somewhere. Actually, your dress looks a lot like some of the ones I used to have around then. 🙂
Old photos bring back great memories for sure! Ever notice how nothing is new under the sun? Skinny jeans are back again!
Ah This is cool. I’d so join you in throw back thursday but I only have like 5 or 6 photos of myself as a child. But I do remember having a dress like the one you are wearing, as I was born in 81. They must have been popular.
