OK. I’m Sorry, But Those Really WERE The Days!
Twenty-one years ago tonight, my crazy sisters and I dressed our (then) collective eight babies in the get-ups you see here.
Liz found the costumes—complete with wigs and stage make-up—for $2 each at the J.C. Penney’s Outlet Store. Two bucks was a little steep for us in those days, but we three mothers decided to bite the Halloween bullet and go with the kooky clown motif.
Scotty the Gregarious is in the lower left hand corner of the group pic, and on the right in the close-up shot. Carrie the Cutie is on the upper right in the group.
I was seven months pregnant with Kevin that night, which is why I’m not pictured. Believe me, I could have easily upstaged an entire couch full of clowns!
- Too cute! :)

- Now that's really spooky!
I've been afraid of clowns since I was a child. The first time I saw one at the circus, my father had to explain to the irate policeman that he wasn't kidnapping me, just spiriting me away from the offending vision!Posted by Bonnie Calhoun on 10/31/05 at 10:57 PM - I just wrote on my blog about how much I hated Halloween and have a fear of clowns! Then I get on here and see this picture. UGH. The sweat is pouring off of me, and I even know who the kids are.

- I'm have to admit I'm also scared to death of clowns. And now that these kids are all grown up, a few of them scare me, too!!!
