In actuality, it was a long time ago.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for entering my giveaway.

(she said with just a touch of envy!)That picture of you when you were 16 is BEAUTIFUL - don't you hate that the quality of our snaphots from way back then are such that the colors don't stay true????.<BR/> <BR/>You're touching up gray, I'm trying to grow gray out. I guess that means I've given up the battle. ha! I keep seeing the circles under my eyes getting deeper and deeper. When did this happen? And when did I get creases on my FOREHEAD? I was thinking just yesterday that I used to put on my make-up and look pretty decent. NOW I put on my make-up and I really don't see a difference. I think I need to go to Merle Norman and tell them to do their best...if they can show me a change, I'll buy one of everything they sell. lol Hey...now that I think about it, that's really not such a bad idea. :)<BR/>I'm off to soak in the tub for an hour or two...I know that'll make me feel young and lovely.

I loved being young but like you would not swap it now for the world :)<BR/><BR/>It is so nice for all you girls to catch up, lovely photos!<BR/><BR/>Oh and about the Raffaello's, they are crispy, creamy almond coconut candy made by Ferrero Confetteria and they are just divine! <BR/><BR/>Lastly, promise!! Australia Day is the biggest day of celebration in our country, it's a public holiday in all our states and territories.<BR/><BR/>On Australia Day we come all come together to celebrate and reflect as a nation on what's great about Australia and being Australian. <BR/><BR/>Many immigrants become Australian citizens in Ceremonies around the country on this day and our Prime Minister announces the Australian of the Year Awards. There are parties and fun all around the country from the outback towns to the cities! <BR/><BR/>Well you will have had enough of us by now, so will fly off :) <BR/><BR/>Have a lovely week Joan :)<BR/>Jenn and JacquiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3422880744691219501.post-12613016658183867132008-01-20T15:59:00.000-05:002008-01-20T15:59:00.000-05:00Last Summer, I went to the "parlor" and let my hai...Last Summer, I went to the "parlor" and let my hair dresser convince me I should get my hair frosted...I just can't explain how I felt afterwords except to say I felt guilty!!lolol<BR/>I EARNED my grey hair!
