I didn't run today, but I did want to participate in the 80's competition.  These aren't the best pictures, but they are the only ones that I didn't have to scan in.  In all three of these pictures, you'll see my cousin (Nicole), whom I ran to help between September 15th and October 15th.  I'm going to visit her for Thanksgiving and I can't wait!

Enjoy!

I'm the tall one.  That is my brother next to me, and of course, Nicole on the right.  Can you tell we aren't pleased with the torture they were putting us through in those outfits?

Okay, Here is me, in poka dots and my cousin Nicole.

And in the spirit of Halloween...

My brother is a Magician and I'm the Bunny jumping out of a Top Hat.  :o)

I have more 80's pictures that would make you laugh, but I'd have to pull them out.  I hope you enjoyed these ones!

Ok, so no mystery as to where Melanie gets her adorable-ness from! And aren't you glad you have a girl to dress up? Your poor brother!!

That reminds me... if we do a 70's show and tell, Mike had a powder blue suit he still hasn't forgiven his mother for...

I'll try to find something good for this 80's thing and post it tomorrow. If the contest is for cuteness, you just won it Camille. And Marion won for coolest.

I love it!! You are so cute in your poka dots dress. You were just a little girl in the 80's, a baby!! I will have to post some of mine, but I was a mother by then, not so cute. Can you fly up to Utah for our run Camille? Why is it mothers do that to their sons?? hehehe, I think I am guilty of it too!

Thank you girls! I was born in the 80's (early 80's) so, yes, I was a baby. But at my house, the 80's lasted til about 95. That's when I graduated elementary school, started highschool, and realized ratting my bangs and wearing leggins with hot pink socks gathered over them was NOT cool. :o).

From camille on Thu, Oct 30, 2008 at 08:38:53

I meant to say started middle school, not highschool

Check out my blog today to see what the 80's was REALLY about. I would have totally babysat you :)

You're just a wee lass!

I'm glad your brother didn't grow up with issues. Is he aware you posted this on the interweb?

From Camille on Thu, Oct 30, 2008 at 13:22:54

First of all, he DID grow up with issues. I should email you a picture of him from highschool and you'd agree. And second, no, he has no clue I posted this ]:o)

I guess not one would be able to escape unscathed after being dressed in that outfit.

From Kelli on Thu, Oct 30, 2008 at 13:46:46

Okay, so you are still younger than me, but those dresses look a little bit familiar!
