She looks so much like Em in that first picture! God, your parents all had such pretty children (baby!blonde!Beth). That's a really cool story about you leaving the asshole first husband.
HOGOD, isn't baby blonde Beth the most ADORABLE THING EVER??? And hee! I've never been told that Em looks like anyone in my fam, so I love that the first picture of Tiff looks like my kid, AWWWW!! SPeaking of good looking kids, Tiff has two BEAUTIFUL ones. (But I don't want to post pics of them without her permission.)
And yeah - her coming to get me was one of the great moments in my life. <3
She IS. She actually looks a lot like my little goddaughter did in the summer. Same expression, too. *grins* Re: Tiff/Em - She DOES, though - like, I can't pinpoint it, but there's just something about her nose and mouth. Sort of... the proportions of her face? She's got stronger features than Em, and she's taller and so on, but it made me think of Em immediately. *has picture of your girls on her WALL, glances up

OH SOPHIE!!! I just got back from the Post Office and I am SO DELIGHTED!!! I'm waiting for the kids to be home from school for proper squeeage, but I just BEAMED at the postman when he handed me a Royal Mail box!
More to come in two hours when Stonettes are home and we can SLATHER YOU WITH LOVE.
please also email me at nearest convenience with your Oxford address and an address for your parents. *cough*Holiday cheer*cough*
I KNOW. I had to link to your post, because you said it better than me!! :D
(And we didn't have barn PARTIES, just beer barns: a drive through liquor shop, shaped to look like a barn? Car door service? You don't have those? Here in the city, we had those kind of parites in people's houses a la Sixteen Candles or in warehouse parking lots, which was dumb, because they always got busted by the cops. Where my ex grew up (central Tex.) it was in big ol' fields, like on the show.)
And that's essentially how a beer barn (party barn in Central Texas) works, you just drive through the building. Yeah - being in a car and picking up a case of beer, some smokes, jerky, and condoms. MOBILE PARTY. Hahahaha!
And I MISSED THAT EP OF THE DAILY SHOW, WHAT?!?!? I must have fallen asleep because clearly I'm getting too old to stay up to Satan's Hours. I'll have to hunt that down, because I LOVE HER. (Did you see Alec on SNL? Holy shit, the man is so funny.)
YOU NEED TO CATCH UP. They are both made of kickass and greatness. With a side of "WHEEEE!" Not to be confused with a side of wee, which is wrong.
Oh, sweet, the happy birthday message is just wonderful. Sisterhood, with all the Holly Hobby stuff, the clothes-snagging, the spats and the support -- it makes me tear up, so thank you for sharing that.
Happy Birthday to Tiffany -- all the best to her.
*hugs you*
skipping the tv stuff, because if you know me, you *know* I am behind liek woah on episodes of everything.
yes yes, I put it with a long space after the sis stuff since I know you have catching up to do!
I just remembered the Holly Hobby pop-up playhouse this morning while typing it out. That picture of us - we're 4 and 5 - with our long knee-high red socks falling off our feet and our dorky grins is a great picture. I think Brenda has those pics, though. *sigh*
