Did your parents ever do THIS? (pics 2) Updated (1pic)

I sure could use some of the cold weather needed for wearing this outfit right now!!!

[Lizzie]

I hated the coup de grace, the long scratchy woolen scarf wound round and round and round and round my neck last of all. I couldn't bend over it enough to make a snowball and I felt strangled. It was the first thing that "accidentally" fell off while I was out in the snow.

My folks never did that to me. I just had a regular snowsuit, hat, mits & a childs scarf.. oh & boots heehe I remember running about playing, making snowballs, snowmen & snowpets.. & all the other fun stuff...

I also know what its like to walk through 4' of fluffy snow.. or as what i really did was play in it with the dog hehe.. I was swimming in it somewhere & the dog was bouncing through it & swimming in it.. oh the memories of playing in snow

LOL When I was about 2 years old, we went on vacation to the mountains. My parents couldn't find a snow suit of my size, so I had to use a huge one! I remember I couldn't move on it....

I'll try to find a pic

Speaking of snowsuits.....yes we wore them. And one of my mother's favorite stories is that I bit my older brother while he was wearing his snow suit....left a mark too! One tough child! (and I am sure he had it coming.... )

[CountryWolf07]

LOL! Yes! Wow. That brought back memories!

Such a funny thread I remember having a big furry hat that tied under my chin with pom-poms...................

I remember them! I had one too. I had totally forgotten about them!

I'm born before snowsuits. But I know wearing those pants with a band under your feet, with woollen socks and with ski boots- which at that time meant that the socks went deep into the boots and there was one incerdibly cold and red and itching part of the skin where the woollen socks met icy snow I hated that.
BTW I also had that big fake furry hat with pom-poms- but when I had it I thought it was the latest fashion- so I was rather happy with it
What I hated were the hand knitted woollen hats with a pompom on top. My granny proudced them but to my opinion they were boys' hats only.

Weren't they just gorgeous?

[Logan]

No, but then if they had, I would have probably died of heat stroke! It never got that cold here.

Cute pictures, Connie!!!!

This is me Jasmine, writing under MeMaw's name. I remember those days like it was just last year -



They got me so bundled up I hardly fit in my stroller!


Aunt Amy, why am I so bundled up when you don't even have your coat zipped or a hat one?

[momoffuzzyfaces]

Jasmine you are so cute!!! I feel your pain about being bundled up to your eyeballs though!

I am so jealous of those of you who had a hat with pom poms!!! I would have loved one of those!!! Here is what I got stuck with:

The weather didn't even have to be cold!
The fact that my brother looked like a dork too, was not much comfort!!!

WHERE DID MOM FIND THOSE HATS????

They kept appearing over the years in different colors but with the same icky brim!!!

Another one of my "fashion statements" was the suspenders!!!
HAVE MERCY!!!

[lvpets2002]

Oh yes & was that not the good ole days.. How so funny & cute.. I can for sure remember them days..

[Killearn Kitties]

Actually, I did rather like my hat with the pom-poms at the time. It was "the latest thing"! It's only with hindsight that I think of it as dodgy.

BUT ... MOFF ... that is some hat!!!
