More notes from Washington -- awkward bat mitzvah photos

photo.JPG

While here in Washington, we were looking through old family photos. So I thought I'd share this one with you myself, before any of my family members (*coughbrothers*) tried to blackmail me with it. I remember really, really, really wanting this dress. I'm no longer sure why, although I'm not sure it's the worst part of this photo. The 80s were a very long time ago...

  1. That sheet cake is bigger than you are! LOL You look great. No need to feel your brothers are going to black mail you with that photo.

  2. Laura Ingalls ruled! I had this dress, too. Then I designed my own similar one that I made my mom create for me for 8th grade graduation. Braces, big hair... my glasses came later.

  3. Oh, you are so brave to share this photo! 😉 And I thought coming of age in the 70's was bad... My sisters are the lucky ones---their graduation pictures from the 60's are still lovely. Glad you and your family can have a laugh during this difficult time.

  4. I had this dress! And my little sisters had the toddler versions. We wore them for Thanksgiving one year. Somewhere I have a picture of the 3 of us in all our glory!
