HA! Ok those shirts were the greatest. I loved glitter goo shirts.

[Paula]

This is me in 1986. I never really had big hair because I thought it looked stupid. LOL

[sjford0419]

According to the picture, this was taken April 10, 1983!! My dad used to take pictures as a side job...he used to photograph lots of weddings, studio stuff, etc so we NEVER got school pictures done...he did them himself! So this was my 5th grade picture!! LOL!!



ETA: Oh yeah, he also developed all of the pictures himself too! Hence the BW/Sepia tone to the pic!

[sjford0419]

I LOVE seeing everyone's pics!! This is so cool! LOL!

Take a picture of a picture. If you do it right, with a bit of tweaking it'll be good enough to scrap with

[mnm_y2]

Here's me in 1981 0n my first birthday

[Jenn Barrette]

Me in '86, take note of the side ponytail...LOL

[crystalbird]

This is me in 1982. The hair is courtesy of those awful pink rollers!

[iJenny]

Ok, I got mine. I had to photograph the photograph (lol) because my scanner is on the fritz. So, without further ado, I present to you Jenny circa 1984 (my first day of preschool, I was three years old).


I was totally rockin' the mushroom haircut and leotard dress.

P.S. And yes, my mother butchered my childhood photos with *gasp* decorative scissors. But give her a break... this was waaaay back in the early days of paper scrapping.

[Penny Springmann]

These are too funny! I'll have to see if I can scan some tomorrow!

LOL! I have tons of pictures cut just like this!

[~ashleigh]

I am sure I have many gems around here, but this one was handy - if you look through all the hair, that is me in the back left (with the braces).

circa 1987:

[maryinaz]

You all are so young! I was in college in the 80s and have some sorority party pics that are pretty funny - Rick Springfield fawning, bandana scarf wearing, MASH party, short-haired...and drunk in almost all of the pics. But there are so many other people in the pics, that I'm not in touch with, I hate to post them (don't have them scanned anyway).

[rach3975]

These are great! I spent all night watching a movie and going through old photos only to discover that

• even in the 80's I was the one behind the camera (and what a camera--the Kodak Disc)
• the best ones, full of flourescent geometric clothing, are at my parents' house
• I have a shameful number of photos stored in non-archivally safe envelopes
• technology hates me and my scanner seems to have given up the ghost after scanning just 2 of these many photos that need to be preserved

Here's me in 1988. Note the white swatch and the rolled, tied t-shirt over my bathing suit.


Here's me with my sister in 1980. I'm the one with the longer hair. We had a lot of matching outfits back then.
