.old maid...apparently.

So today was, to put it any other way, long. I think I was mentally checked out around one in the afternoon and we still had a long day of mishaps to go. Amy, my big sis and I were at Joann's Fabrics to pick up some last minute supplies for her awesome new purse that she's making. We were waiting in the checkout line and were called so we slowly shuffled to the very end cashier and I notice (vaguely) that our cashier is staring at me. I look up at her and kind of give her a half smile to get her to stop looking at me like that, but she just...keeps...staring. At this point, Amy is trying to shove her supplies into the cashier's hands so that we could pay for our stuff. The cashier then gets a mischievous smile on her face and asks, "are you guys twins?" Amy and I kind of look at each other and smile and I say, "No, sisters. Eleven years difference." We all chuckle and the cashier proceeds to ring up our items. When she's done, she hands the bag to Amy and looks at me and says, "You shouldn't rat yourself out like that!" I didn't really know what she was talking about so I just replied with a "oh, sorry!" and we left. When we got to the car though, I realized that she thought that I was older than my sis and I should be keeping it on the hush, hush. hahaha! Because I'm just oozing maturity and knowledge, or maybe it was the lack of makeup...? Anyway, it was hilarious. It turned in to me having this weird sporadic laughter all the way home.

So, apparently, I aged 10-20 years at Joann Fabrics today. I might have died a little inside. In order to make myself feel better, I'm going to post a whole ton of pictures of yesterdays adventures!

Swinging!!!!


Balancing on one foot while rollerblading and telling Amy to "Look at me, look at what I can do!!!!!" Check out that face of utter concentration and control. You should be proud. I sure was.



And this is my "do I really have to do this?" face


And yes. Yes, I did.

And I liked it, too.

  2. hahaha that is so funny!! There have never been any questions about age with my biggest sis because there is such an age difference. I guess there's a first time for everything, right? ;)
