Are You Ready for This?



Here you go Mom, I found the picture I was talking about. I totally remember this day, I remember standing on those chairs to take the picture, I remember the balloons stuck all over the primary room. Oh and the costume, I remember this costume, we really out did ourselves on this one. The belt really pulls the whole clown look together! And you were right, Troy is a hunter! On the back of the picture if says "Primary Halloween 10-84" So that would have made me 7 years old. Thanks for the fun memory Mom. Love ya.

I also found this one taken Halloween 1980. That makes me 3 years old in this one.


Then I found this little number taken on Halloween when I was in the 4th grade. I was a cave woman. Mom had these costumes left over from girls camp one year. SoI believe we used hot chocolate mix to make my face, feet, legs and arms look dirty. I remember wanting to wash my face off so bad because it was so sticky!! Fun. I really love that I posed by the trash can. And come to think of it, I remember thinking it was weird to pose there when I took the picture. I was right!

Troy and I are sitting here laughing. He said your hair was always Tawanda looking. I remember being a smurf, smurfette.

As your sister,I'm not sure how you want me to respond. All I can say is "I feel your pain". I have some pictures of me that don't look too different, except it's not halloween! But i know we were loved! Cotton City didn't have any local costume stores anyway...we were on our own. Right? And wow! What an imagination! These pic's wouldn't look 1/2 as good if they were store bought! Right?

Okay Troy is frantically searching for more of him. He says mine are worse! You have nothing on him he says. And that picture of you in the tiger plastic bag..... looks like Sydnee and Kai. Troy says everyone wore that at some point.
