This is the post where I pay homage to the Madison Mustangs 8th Grade Pom Squad. Circa 1988.
Oh, please notice our adorable shoes. And my side ponytail, oddly obscured by the pom pom by my head. I am 3rd from the right on the bottom row, by the way. And my neck looks abnormally long. What was I thinking wearing my hair up?
That was some good fun with those girls. I still remember some of routines we had to Axel F (done with our horizontally striped green and white sweaters, it was WAY cool), Jailhouse Rock- in which we wore black soffes and men's white shirts we got a Goodwill and spray painted black stripes on, and stencil numbers- so we looked like convicts. Oh. It was cute stuff. And when I am totally Grayce's cheer coach, I am SO teaching them it. We also did one to some Paula Abdul song- I totally can't think of the name of right now. It's driving me crazy and I will have to go look it up before I can sleep. Something about a boy I think...

Oh the shoes!!!
So important to be FULLY SPIRITED- you had to have killer coordinated SHOES.
How I remember!
Perfect FRO post...
You've got the spirit, yes you do.
Love the ponytail and the pom poms.
Those were the daaaaays! (sung like Edith Bunker)
Lovin' those shoes!
I lOVED the side pony tail! The side pony tail rule! My daughter, who is 7 wears it that way all the time now after seeing me with my hair like that in an old picture. Those shoes are adorable. Great Fro post.
The side pony tail is supposed to be making a come back. Paula Abdul was probably Straight Up or Cold Harded Snake.
You all looked adorable!!!
Love it! I miss all of our friends...these pics bring back lots of memories. And I love the big hair!
