Here today is yet another exciting installment of pictures that are too bad for scrapbooking! Today we feature a picture from Christmas 1994.
I had just opened up my in-line skates, something I had wanted for months. You would think I would look happy in this picture, instead of the "die, DIE!" look I am giving my dad. I blame my expression on my hair and my shirt. You can't tell from this picture, but the lights on the Christmas tree light up and blink. Does anyone else remember the cut-out fabric/puffy paint decorated sweatshirts? I had at least a dozen, thanks to my Aunt Faye. As for my hair, I was in the midst of growing it out from this haircut. I have a lot of natural curl to my hair, even more so when I was younger. My best guess is that I was trying to make my hair straight so I brushed it. Perhaps my face is the look of regret I have for what I did to my hair?For more "you can't scrapbook THAT picture," check out We are THAT Family!
You don't need an excuse! You were in style!
ReplyDeleteI think I have more than one of these pictures too. Christmas morning pictures tend to not be my best. I remember those sweatshirts! Ah the memories. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for stopping by yesterday. :)
I used to have the same glasses - and beaten down hair! :)
ReplyDeleteDefinitely stylish for the time! As to the look, I always looked the same way after posing for several thousand photos. Maybe it was a "put the camera away or die" look. LOL.
ReplyDeleteOh you certainly don't look happy! You were probably in that same stage of development that my two youngest girls are in -- the one where you do not want to show your parents any excitement ...
ReplyDeleteGreat photo to capture "That" moment.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my Northern Ireland blog. Yes - I was a bit spooked by such a bright and alert baby so soon after delivert!
Thanks for stopping by. Actually the photos are are seperately taken, then put together using wonderful digital technology!!! It's genius.
ReplyDeleteThat look on your face is classic! I am sure you loved your skates.
ReplyDeleteLove those colored socks. I remember those. Thanks for visiting my blog! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat is it with aunts and sweaters? I have a bunch of those, too. Love the expression :) I had that one on my face a lot at Christmas. I think it was because I was so tired of smiling for the past 500 pictures...
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog!
Now that's funny...your label is "fro"...I chuckled. Like the reindeer peeking out behind the fro! LOL! Merry Christmas to you also & thanks for stopping by my blog!
ReplyDeletehahaha...you are so funny. I'm sure I have pics with a similar hairstyle...but mine was a perm, so the frizz was self-inflicted.
ReplyDeleteWHY?
I do not know.
