I was strolling Pinterest over the weekend and had to giggle when I saw some pins on my screen. There were a bunch of things from back in the day when I was growing up. From toys, to lip glosses to just fun, random things from the 80s. It made me smile and reminded me how cool it is that a photo of something can transport me back to a certain time, a certain place and certain memories. It was neat. I even started a FLASHBACK board so that I could pin the things I saw along the way. It’s fun to reminisce!
Here are a few things that I pinned. See if any of them make you have a flashback! ;)
Those were the good ol’ days! ;) Speaking of days – I hope your day today is a great one! Hugs!

June 18, 2012 at 11:09 pmOh wow, I remember all of those things! Did you know they rereleased the Peaches and Cream Barbie? I so wanted that one but it was too expensive back then. I looked at it at Target and thought long and hard, and decided it was too expensive for a trip down memory lane. Guess it just wasn’t meant to be, then or now!
