A Look Back Link-Up: 1987 – (I’ve Had) The Time of My Life


No I never felt like this before
Yes I swear it's the truth
And I owe it all to you
'Cause I've had the time of my life
And I owe it all to you

  “(I’ve Had) The Time of My Life”-Dirty Dancing Soundtrack

I’ve been prepping for this post since we first began A Look Back Link-Up back in June.  
Shaping Up To Be A Mom

When I think of 1987 I think of the movie, Dirty Dancing.  Summer romance, beautiful scenery…errr Patrick Swayze, dancing…what’s NOT to LOVE?

When I think of this movie I also think of my best friend from childhood, Alison.  


We watched this movie together ALL the time.  We would have sleepovers, make Chef Boyardee Pizza, bake chocolate chip cookies and make popcorn and then get snuggled down into our sleeping bags in the living room and watch Dirty Dancing. 

I truly had “The Time of My Life”!!!

  5. I love this! And that song...
    Seriously, movies from the 70's and 80's really make me think I missed out on something special. I love the technology we have today, but, wouldn't that have been something to be a teen in the 80's?

  6. I love this movie. Sadly, my cousin and I use to practice doing the dance but I am sure we looked more like the two older ladies dancing together :)
