Fun Monday - A trip down memory lane

Well, this is my first time hosting Fun Monday! So welcome! And I hope I get all the links right. TeHe! If I don't, please be patient, and let me know and I will try to fix it!

So what do I have in store for you this week? Well! It's not too hard, really, it isn't.

"I want you to take a trip down memory lane, and keep right on going, right back to your childhood. And I want to hear "THAT STORY". You remember the one? Yes, you do! The one your parents, siblings, extended family or friends, would never let you forget, live down or get over!"

It could have been funny, embarrassing, shocking, delightful, naughty, mischievous, or just so darned cute that everyone felt the need to remind you of it, and keep reminding you of it, all your life.

I would like to hear all the juicy details and if possible (but not compulsory) , add a picture of yourself at the age your story took place. So there you go. Not too difficult, I think. The only rule is, that the story MUST be about yourself. Not your children, siblings or your significant other. (This is the one rule you may NOT bend, even you Swampy!)

So without further ado, here are the trusting souls, who signed up without knowing what I had in store for them. And those who hinted they would see me next week, I just went ahead and added you too! If you would like to join them on Monday, please leave a comment and I'll add you to the list.
