Mil-Spouse Friday Fill-In #26

I love mil-spouse friday fill-ins. I've missed them for the past three weeks. I'm glad we're back into the swing of things. :) Here are this week's questions:



1.What are you looking forward to most in 2011? from Jessica Lynn Writes

I'm most looking forward to getting our own place. I'm really missing having our own space.

2.What is something random you do on a boring night when your significant other is away? from Lovin Ma Soldier

I play Epic Mickey or Mario Galaxy 2 on the Wii, since they are both one-player games. Or I read. 

3.What has been your greatest adventure as a MilSpouse? from Misadventures of An Army Momma

  

Just surviving a year-long deployment was an adventure in and of itself. Not to mention getting to know so many new people at once.

4.What is the ugliest fashion trend you ever bought into (I'd like to make fun of you, so can you please provide a picture as well)? from More Than An Army Wife

There aren't that many...tying the corner of my shirt into a knot was pretty ridiculous. Other than that, I'm not really trendy. LOL. I'm a hippy. My Mama says I should've been born 20 years earlier than 1985, because I could've been part of the Woodstock movement. LOL.

Here's a pic of me in one of my hippy outfits.

Me, in the front, trying to cover my legs...lol.

Blue-jean vest, flowered sun-dress and huge scrunchy...

5.What was the high point of last month?
I'd have to say the high point was Christmas and J's sister having her baby boy. :)

Hope everyone has a great Friday! :)

Flash Back Friday #2

Sorry this post is a little late. That new niece of mine is keeping us all a little bit busier. :) 

Anywho...Here are a few Flash Backs that you may remember...

T

These things were so good!

I

I actually bought a whole box of these on Valentine's Day this year. :) YUMMY!

T

This used to be the only game that our computer had...can you imagine if we were still stuck with only this game? I was horrible at it.

  No? Don't remember these? I actually bought two of them at the Good-will two weeks ago...they're still floatin' around.

That's all for this week. I'll try to find more and maybe even some accompanying pics from my childhood next week...we'll see. 

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Flash-Back Friday

Saw this Tuesday, over at The Un-Mom and had a good laugh. Mom turned me onto StumbleUpon and I've been feeling nostalgic ever since. Thought I'd post a few of the nostalgia that I remembered after seeing the ones posted at I'm Remembering!.

There's Bed-Bugs:

Here we are playing it:

That's me on the left, Amanda on the right and Mom's hand.

Side note: We used the bed for a Barbie bed after we lost all the pieces. :)

Remember 3D Doritos?? I loved those things...Maybe they'll make a come-back...

I wish I had one of these--Pillow-People:

Fuzz-ball stickers...I had one until recently, when the dog decided it was good chew-toy....sad day:

I loved to read books even then...here is one of my favorites:

Why do they not still make these?!?!

And these, we called high-tops, L.A. Gear Sneakers:

Here I am wearing mine..(in first grade)..freakishly-tall kid in pink/white striped thingy with the brown ponytail...squinting because undoubtedly, it was bright that day:

The other girl in the pink/white-striped dress is still my BFF!

And of course, who could forget the "Little Barrels of Juice":

And who didn't have stick-on earrings? My ears were pierced and I still had these!

So I totally expected Mom to still have these, but she threw them out a long time ago, she says:

And all school memories wouldn't be complete without one of these fortune tellers, I was so sure I was going to marry Steven Teal:

Speaking of school...remember these lunches? They were my favorite!!! who took a pic of their lunch??:

 And last, but not least, wax-bottle candy:

 I totally had some of these not too long ago. They were sitting on the dashboard of Jeremy's car, he took a curve too fast and the went sliding out the window...last time I've seen them. :(

Well, that's it for my Flash-back Friday. Hope everyone has a great weekend! This was so much fun, I think I'll do this every Friday! Feel free to join in! :)

NOTE: For some reason, the pictures don't always show up. :( I'm not sure why this is happening. I do apologize.
