The first day - finding a map

Ok, so I totally stole this blog-idea thing from my sister. I can only hope that mine turn out to be as funny as her's are, becuase she is great. I may not have her vocabulary skills, but I know I a LOT more colorful words than she does.

As you can see, I obsess about my sister. Well, not just her...my family in general. I think it is in our genes, actually. We all have to know what the other is up to; basically so we can talk about them behind their backs. Don't get me wrong, we are the coolest family in our town! Everyone loves us! We are all very honest and open with each other, but for some reason that is our downfall. None of us know how to 1) Shut up 2) Say what we mean or 3) Listen to thing we really don't want to hear. I blame it on us being so close as children (six kids no more than 2 years apart). You spend that much time with anyone, and you are bound to lose it sometimes.

I gotta say though, I love my family. We know we can trust each other, and we understand each other without saying a word. It's like we are the the only ones who "get the joke" sometimes, and it's fun. Even after we fight like hell, we can never stay mad for long.

Now, if you'll excuse me, my sister that I argued with earlier today is buying me dinner :)
