Don't you just love the cat-eye glasses. Those were hot back then. This was my first pair of glasses. They met their untimely demise later on when they fell in an outhouse toilet in Shaver Lake. Sad day. Do you like the dress? I did. My mom made it for me.
Remember to be nice when you comment.

Aww! This is so cute!
Those glasses are back in style now!!
I think we all look the same when we look back at pictures. The kids today will also laugh at themselves someday when they look back. Thanks for sharing.
I had a pair of those glasses myself...in pink!
=)
PS. Thanks for the gift card! It arrived today, and I am going to have a good time picking something out!!
I always love cat eye glasses, but it never fits my face... but always love them...
You are brave :) I wouldn't even know where to look for a photo of me at that age, though I'm sure my parent have piles of them!
Great post!!
I had a pair of glasses like those -- mine were pink, my favorite color then and now. And I think the picture is very sweet -- that is a fabulous, warm, happy smile!

How funny and yet ...so cute. Love those glasses. In fact, I remember that style as I'm just a bit older than you. :)

New glasses in grade five can be devestating. You are smiling so proudly in your photo, I can see they didn't cramp you style one bit. I bet your Mum had alot to do with that. I bet you are alot like your Mum too, and that Daniel loves you as much as you love your Mum. Nice blog. FOund you thru Friday Follow. I'll enjoy coming by often. Rosemary

I think you are adorable! So cute....look at those sweet sweet eyes!
So cute...yes, I love the glasses! And they are back in style so you could wear them again and be as trendy as ever ;)
Hehe, I actually really like those glasses :)
I love those glasses, I wish that they had that style when I first got mine instead of those thick chunky plastic frames!
Hey Karen, found you through Java and the whole follow over 40 thing.
Oh yeah, I am well over 40----I will be 59 in September
Always fun to meet new people....and hey, I am over your faith too
I love this picture, and those classes are very cool!! This had to be 1969, because you are 10 years older than me!!
I just found you from Never Growing Old's Over 40 Blog Hop. I'm enjoying visiting your blog.

I think those cat-eye glasses are still hot ^_^
Hi! I'm blog hopping from Alicia's Friday Photo Flashback MckLinky.
I LOVE the cat-eyed glasses!
Yup, I'd say 1969-1970. And I DO love the glasses...and the dress. I always wanted to sew...I just don't think I have the patience for it! Have a wonderful day Karen!
I am visiting from New Friend Friday. Love this blog hop...and have found so many great new blogs...Hope you will stop by and visit.. I have a surprise giveaway that I will draw for on Sunday night.

I love this photo!!! We all have those great photos from Elementary school!!! AWESOME!!!
Found you through the over 40s sites. I'm 'a tad' older than you but I sure do remember those days of the glasses and home-made dresses. I had glasses like that but mine were lavender.....and I'm a redhead. Imagine!
Following your blog. Come visit me sometime.
Karen, I totally COVET those glasses. Seriously I think this photo is beyond adorable. I'd really love a pair of specs like that to alternate with. How fun would that be???
What a cutie pie you were! Personally, I think the glasses are cool :)

I love the dress and the glasses! I hated all my yearbook pictures, and looked awful in them! I am glad I found you at the tea party!
I love the flashback! Too cute!
If we had a little girl I hope she would look just like that!
This is GREAT! This is my first time viewing your blog...I love it. I will be participating in Flashback Friday. I think it's a wonderful idea! I'm your newest follower!
Don't be Shy... CHeck my Blog Out!
Pop some dark shades into those cat-eye frames and I would totally wear them as sunglasses!
Found your blog through 'Critique my blog' and I think it's great!
I love the layout, it's very personable and friendly. Keep up the good work!
Great picture... I love the glasses, I wanted some, but I had good vision so my mom said no!
I really thought I commented on your post last week! Oh well...sometimes I can't remember if I am coming or going!
I love your cat glasses...sorry to hear that they got lost in the Loo! I started wearing glasses when I was in 3rd grade, but don't remember getting that style.
Blessings & Aloha!
