I Was A Senior Hottie

A month or so ago, Liz over at A Belle, A Bean & A Chicago Dog thought it would be fun to party like its 1995 and convinced us to post our senior pictures, showing our "style".  And "I Was A Senior Hottie" was born.  Since I am a glutton for punishment and my legs looked pretty darn good in 1995, I thought what the heck! Take a gander at Mom On A Line before I was a mom or balancing anything. (At least I didn't know the real balancing act hadn't started yet!)
Captain of the tennis team and first singles, sporty M.O.L.
Not sure who this girl was trying to be. Is that a carpet vest?
My attempt to look like myself. I wore those sandals and that sweatshirt everywhere.
While those were my senior pictures, complete with floral vest and inside out sweat shirt, I've also included my graduation picture.  As you can tell, senior pictures taken in June before senior year did not look anything like the M.O.L. who graduated high school.
Yes, I chopped all of my hair off like two weeks before school let out.

If you want to join in the fun, dig up your own senior photos, post them on your blog, and link up at A Belle, A Bean & A Chicago Dog. Or if you just want to check out the other senior pictures from 1995 (and many other years), go to the site and click on the links.

  1. Love it! I took a senior pic with my tennis racquet as well - just didn't post it. I should've. We could've been senior hottie twins! ;)

  2. This is fun to see! I've only known you with short hair but must say you look great with that luxurious mane! I can only imagine the upkeep.

    Best,
    Bonnie

  3. I cut off my hair after my freshman year in college. It was just about as short as yours is.

  4. I will forgive you for the carpet vest, because you look like you were a blast to hang out with!

  5. What fun to see! You were a "hottie" then and I'll bet you are one now. This is my first visit to your site so I took some time to poke around your earlier posts. I'm so glad I did that. You've created a great spot for your readers to visit and I've really enjoyed the time I spent here. I'll be back. I hope you have a great day. Blessings...Mary

  7. I headed off to college with so many of those vests. What were we thinking? The over-sized sweatshirt is the best thing ever! You looked awesome.

  8. I love your long hair!! What made you cut it so short?
    And the vest... yea, those were a fashion mishap for us all!

  9. I cut my hair for three reasons: (1) I only grew it for my aunt who wanted a little girl with long hair so she could play with it (she was a hair stylist) and by the end of my senior year, she was finally pregnant with a little girl of her own, so the hair could go; (2) I so thought my hair would be as cute as Meg Ryan's in the movie "French Kiss" (I was wrong!); and (3) I like radical change.

  11. I can't believe you chopped off your hair before graduation. I haven't seen one of those vests in a long time.

Having a child with a CHD is like being given an extra sense---the true ability to appreciate life. Each breath, each hug, each meal is a blessing when you've watched your child live off a ventilator, trapped in an ICU bed, being fed through a tube. Each minute is a miracle when you've watched your child almost die and come back to you.
