blame my mom.....


this was my mom's idea of cute easter outfits. i remember it was the first time i wore makeup. i remember hating how my hair looked that day and not being too happy about the outfit. i can't remember if jennette is laughing or crying in this photo. i like the matching shoes.


here is photographic evidence of our year of the "perm & mullet" combo, inspired by the girls on facts of life (the later seasons, with george clooney when they worked in mrs. garrett's gift shop.)

god bless wiki!!! "The show became part of NBC's much-watched Saturday night lineup in 1985, but by this time, the girls were now in their late teens and early twenties, and public interest was starting to wane. In an attempt to increase ratings, Mrs. Garrett's store, Edna's Edibles, was burned to the ground and was replaced with a pop culture-influenced gift shop that the girls ran together, called Over Our Heads. This phase of the show is notable for including a then-unknown George Clooney as a supporting actor. In addition to inflatable palm trees, the gift shop sold a few records, and this offshoot business was the springboard for many appearances by popular groups and singers, such as El DeBarge, Michael Damian, and Stacey Q."

and finally..........

here's my mom showin' off her fancy new underwear.

Oh the indecency of it all!!! I'll have to dig up my mullet pictures but I'll warn you... Looking at them is akin to being hit in the face with a large bag of tutle shells.

sds- those may well have been button necklaces! ah, the chicken hawks are in the walls.....

mom- you're wrong about the sweaters. it wasn't a hand-me-down. we had matching sweaters that year! i can't remember if it was an accident that we wore the same sweater for our school pics, or if it was your dumb idea. the permed mullets i blame on jo from facts of life.

whitey- we need to see your mullet pics!!!!

mary jane shoes are always in style.

i think jennette was crying in that pic, now that i think about it. she didn't like her dress or something.... it wasn't black i guess. LOL
