Vintage!



Maren posted a Halloween costume that her husband had when he was little. Her little boy is wearing it for Halloween this year. She asked others to post their vintage items. Lexi is wearing the mouse costume my mother made for me at approximately the same age. The items on my dresser I have had since I was little. I saved up for about 8 months to buy the doll in the box. I was about 9 and it cost $100.00. I loved it and had to have it. That is a lot of babysitting. The swan and vase were given to me by my dad when I had hernia surgery at age 4. They are my priceless treasures. The other items I have kept as I have grown up and they still sit on my dresser. Thanks for the trip down memory lane Maren!

Megan!! What a cute family picture. I can't wait to keep in touch with you through blogging since we don't see each other at Bunco anymore. Your family is darling!

That little mouse is still super cute and does not look as "vintage" as you say it is.

SUPER CUTE! Thanks for sharing. You're the only one that has. I thought it was fun to remember the stories behind it all! I will post my dress in the next couple of days! Do you let Lexi play with the costume?
