Family Portrait circa 1985

When my parent's moved I found this in the attic. It's a family portrait I did at school in 5th or 6th grade, which would place it between 1985-early 1987. I can date it to that time period because Duke, the beagle in the drawing, was purchased in August of 1985.

(or was it 1986? He was a puppy when my Grandma and I went to see Back to the Future, so . . .1985, right?)

Two things of note: my Mom's tightly permed hair, which I remember distinctly from that era, and my Grandma's striped shirt which, honest to God, I can picture in my mind like it was right in front of me now.

Note: Blogger is not loading the picture fully. You may click on the image to see the full shot, which includes my sister C.

Don't you just love finding things from the past?

BTW, I think we must be close to the same age...
