This family photo is circa 1987, I believe. I remember well the outfit I'm wearing: blue pleated skirt made in home ec and a radibonzical golden yellow roll-neck sweater with matching earrings and gold dressy shoes, half flat, half pump. The fact that my brother Andy's sweater was the same shade of yellow as mine was blaringly strategic. My brother Ryan's hair was so gelled it was crisp to the touch. My mom reminds me of the whole camp shirt layering concept. And then there's my dad's glasses, which I'm happy to say were replaced not long after this photo was taken. The new ones were very Sally Jesse Raphael. Gotta love the family photo.
