[@dwaneehoward6267]

The 80’s brought the love of my life into my life who adopted all 3 of my children and moved to Hawaii. So many great memories of music, jelly shoes, mixed tapes, and the list goes on.

[@ymjh-maker]

Neon colored t-shirts, leg warmers, cassette tapes and roller skates! The 80's were fun and colorful! 🌈📼🛼

[@jennifertaylor3794]

I got married, we bought a fifth wheel camper and kept it in a campground. I loved it. The 80's were a busy time for us.

[@Compassrose27]

I loved the 80’s that’s when my life changed forever! I purchased my first home, I became married and had my 3 beautiful kiddos in the 80’s. I began construction sewing in the 80’s for my family then I began sewing formalwear and bridal gowns - fashion of the 80’s was fun! That’s when my love for sewing began!

[@brendamcconnell9322]

All three of my children were born in the 80’s❣️ We did cabbage patch kids, rainbow bright, jellies and as Kim would say, “the list goes on…..” Very special years ❣️

[@carolbrown3313]

The 80s started with me playing with my Barbies and Cabbage Patch doll while wear my jeans with the roller skate patch on the back pocket (complete with shoelace embellishment). As the 80s progressed, I lost my mother, graduated high school, got married and started college. Looking back, it was a busy, wide swinging decade!

[@cynthiakehr7961]

I was busy raising kids in the 80s and dancing to the great music! Care Bears and Cabbage Patch kids were some of the hot toys.

[@debbielacroix2470]

OMG the 80's I was knee deep in raising 2 boys so lots of sporting events and cooking of course. Best years ever!!!

[@rhondapeterson2227]

1980 was a big year for me. I went to the hospital 6 weeks early to have a baby. But I had twin daughters instead! What a blessing they are!

The 80’s were my favorite from leg warmers, hair styles, jellies, movies, and I had two babies during that time.

[@lindahorsley4588]

My youngest daughter was born in 1982. She loves quilting. I just gave her one of my embroidery machines and now she is in love with embroidery and Kimberbell designs. We both signed up for the Wallflower Mystery quilt. I live in Utah and she lives in CA, so we FaceTime and make the blocks together. So much fun!

[@sallybrown5526]

My daughter collected Strawberry Shortcake dolls and loved Jelly shoes.

[@Cindy_Colvin]
