Here is what we were doing 22 years ago: (Julie Boyack, Melodee Greene, Jen Spatig, Margaret Kindred, me, Julie Erickson)
My friend Jenny and I were sitting in Mr. Derricott's English class feeling quite bored and sick of winter and decided to have a beach party. We made up these little invitations (typed up on her oh, so cool, typewriter using the italicized font!), got little RX bottles from Preston Drug and personalized the labels. (forgive the blurry picture. . . I'm not super patient today!)
Then we decorated her basement. We made a lovely (heh) mural and turned the supporting beam into a palm tree. We made watermelon cookies (a recipe from Seventeen Magazine)
and had a picnic.
And we played "pin the sunglasses on the hunk" (can you see his picture in the background on one of the photos?) Fun times!

Alright, you have to identify the people in that picture. I can't tell who anyone is behind the 80s hair. I hope you turned your "poem" in for extra credit. Mr. D gave ec for everything.
Wow...blackmail? Just kidding what awesome memories. I think of the Party every winter. I thought you guys were engenious! It was so much fun I am not sure why I haven't done it again with friends or my kids! Who is Christina? Do I know her? I am getting too old and my memory is fading...I didn't recognize brooke until she left me a comment. Thanks for sharing!
What memories! Ya gotta love the decor in my parents' house . . . Hee. Thanks for the great memories! Remember our Shakespeare Barbie clothes??
Jen
ha/ha/ha Great memory! We must have shared pictures because I have the exact pics in one of my dusty albums. You were so cool for throwing this party!
Christina, are you asking that I incriminate my friends??
I'll add the names :).
Melodee, Christina is from Preston but we are old chicks compared to her! She used to be a Westerberg.
I still have one outfit from the Shakespeare Barbie clothes! We were so crazy!
