*Spring 1997* A little gift from me to you -- some throwback photos of my senior year of high school. There's a lot to unpack here, especially considering these are the "after" photos of what was a bit of a glow up in my last year of school. Theater was a big part of my life then, so of course I brought my own stage light in to use as a prop. My dressy/wedding outfit at the time included a vest -- very chic. And while the center part in my hair doesn't look amazing, it was still an upgrade from the beginning of my senior year when my hair was center-parted and much longer. There's also a couple nice photos with the yellow 1975 Toyota Celica that I was lucky enough to have as my first car -- purchased from Grandma & Grandpa Barker, it was a really fun little car to drive around. And I quickly got the feel for driving a manual transmission, which everyone should learn how to do. :) ![[1997_Senior_portraits_0001_a_web.jpg]] ![[1997_Senior_portraits_0002_web.jpg]] ![[1997_Senior_portraits_0003_web.jpg]] ![[1997_Senior_portraits_0004_web.jpg]] ![[1997_Senior_portraits_0005_web.jpg]] ![[1997_Senior_portraits_0006_a_web.jpg]] ![[1997_Senior_portraits_0007_a_web.jpg]] ![[1997_Senior_portraits_0008_a_web.jpg]] ![[1997_Senior_portraits_0009_web.jpg]] ![[1997_Senior_portraits_0010_web.jpg]] ![[1997_Senior_portraits_0011_web.jpg]] ![[1997_Senior_portraits_0012_web.jpg]] ![[1997_Senior_portraits_0013_web.jpg]] ![[1997_Senior_portraits_0014_web.jpg]] ![[1997_Senior_portraits_0015_web.jpg]] ![[1997_Senior_portraits_0016_web.jpg]] ![[1997_Senior_portraits_0017_web.jpg]] ![[1997_Senior_portraits_0018_web.jpg]] ![[1997_Senior_portraits_0019_web.jpg]] ![[1997_Senior_portraits_0020_web.jpg]] ![[1997_Senior_portraits_0021_web.jpg]] ![[1997_Senior_portraits_0022_web.jpg]]
