8/7/15

Melody and Rick couldn't believe their good fortune at being voted King and Queen of the annual St. Nicholas University Frost Fest and after the dinner dance, Rick planned to thaw Melody out with an engagement ring!
Elizabeth adored playing on the equipment at the McDonald's in Broken Bow, Nebraska, but like many young gals before her, she sometimes got her skirt hooked on Mayor McCheese's nose when exiting the merry-go-round, resulting in a fall.
Here we see the fateful day in which future champion gymnast Terry Bartholomew learned the dismount he became famous for, first discovered when his older sister Kari jerked the two-person swing to a sudden halt with her feet.
Although visitation with her son Mario was a key sticking point in her divorce from Manuel, what really made Estela happy was winning full custody of the family pet Chico!
In what had by now become a yearly tradition, Tom and Kelli stood before the tree, showing off the Christmas presents they'd received via UPS from nearsighted Aunt Frances. This year Tom got a shoe while Kelli got a dress that she'd eventually grow in to...
Thus it wasn't until this shattering moment, just prior to the ceremony, that Carleen realized her fatal error in dressing Maid of Honor Becky in a color and style that was more eye-catching than her own bridal ensemble!
At first Gary and his friends thought it was going to be a significant problem that of the five of them, only one had brought a towel to share, but as the afternoon wore on, they found they didn't mind the cramped quarters as much as they thought they would.

Congratulations to Rick; he looks very handsome even in that tuxedo.
Terry looks super cute on the swing, Carleen looks super pissed, and Gary looks well-... I'll tell him myself.

I thought Rick was nice-looking, too,and with a haircut would be hot! Terry was living dangerously on that swing at his tender age! I figured you'd like Gary & Co. :-)

Yikes!!!! Tom and Kelli's Christmas decor & apartment furnishings make Charmaine's below look like something out of "Dynasty"

Isn't it amazing how almost deliberately ugly the colors and fabrics could be in the '70s?? These aren't even garish, just plain drab and hideous, especially together.
