Memory Monday - Prom 1990


Can I stand any farther away from my date! This is Andy one of my brother's best friends, neither of us were dating anyone at the time so we went to prom together. I don't remember dancing with him, I think we both went off with our friends once we were at the dance.
I don't remember much else, except I remember two girls came to the prom together as dates, they "came out" at prom. And I remember my brother's girlfriend made her dress, it was metallic baby pink with a silver cumberbun and a wide leg coolot. It was a bit odd, but I give her props for the guts to sew and wear it.

I had the time of my life..

I loved the dancing, the story, the clothes and I love the oldies music throughout, so this movie hit a cord with me. I have the sound track on my ipod and often sing along to... how do you call your lover boy... oh lover boy!

Memory Monday - Girl Scout Horse Camp

I am going to be one of the Girl Scout leaders for my daughter's Daisy troop, I am excited to do this since I have so many fond memories of being a Girl Scout. I went to my first leaders meeting last week and it brought back so many memories I have forgotten.
Above is a photo of Melony and my dear friends Edna & Ursula. It was 1987 and we went to Camp Cedarledge in Mo. We were doing the horse camp program called WITS (Wranglers-In-Training), my nickname was Pokey, Edna thinks it was because I was slow moving in the 104 heat wave. Edna & Ursula did not have nicknames since when they told our counselors their real names they thought the names were nicknames, ha... Edna & Ursula are very unusual names.
I remember hanging out in our cots reading our daily mail from home, I remember walking up to the stables every morning calling the horses down and feeding them, I remember that was the first time I saw two horses "getting busy", I remember Edna's foot getting stepped on by a horse. I remember the biggest horse flies I have ever seen and how they bite! I remember taking the horses on a long ride and camping out in the woods, sleeping in hammocks in the trees and hearing the horses softly neigh all night... I really remember having so much fun I didn't want to go home.
Don't I look cool with my short blue shorts and mesh hat... oh and I had to wear the bandanna, I was a WIT!

Milk Jug Mama
We are collecting milk jugs for a big project in December and we need at least 250 jugs. So I asked my friends, family and neighbors to save me jugs. I also asked the kindergarten Moms from Amelia's class.
Each day the Mom's have been bringing me a jug or two at pick up, but yesterday I got 13 jugs! Luckily I had the stroller for Anna and we piled them on, we looked a little odd walking home and I did get a few double takes from drivers. It made me laugh... we have about 80 jugs... keep bringing those jugs!

Memory Monday - Alpha Xi Delta Spring Formal

Yes, that's me on the end with the disco ball dress. I remember shopping for this dress with my Mom and how pretty I thought it was. It was fitted through the top, with a drop waist and a full gray skirt that came just above my knee. I was a bold move, back then I always like the different... clothes with a twist. If I remember correctly this formal dance was held in St. Louis on the President Riverboat, this was when it still floated down the river. My date was a guy named Donny, he was a Lambda Chi from University of Missouri,Rolla.
This new segment might become "funny photos of Tracy" we'll see what happens.
