We got up early this morning and made a run to our new favorite coffee place, which is much better than Starbucks (blasphemy, I know!!). We picked up my Aunt Amy from the airport. She and Amanda are twins. The dynamic that these two women create with my mother is hilarious. I have never giggled so much in my life…
We went off to breakfast at the Naked CafĂ© again, and presented Amy with the present that we bought for her! … And ourselves (hehe!). Before Amy got here, my mother, Amanda, and I bought four matching sacred heart necklaces to symbolize our bond to each other, and our aspiration toward personal and spiritual growth. None of us are Catholic, but these little necklaces symbolize something beautiful for each of us. If I can help it, I will never take mine off. My mother and her sisters have indoctrinated me as a "chosen sister", and we have come to call ourselves the Sacred Heart Sisters. Cute, huh? :)
We are all women that are easily distracted, so once we decided to visit the thrift store down the street, we were doomed not to. We stopped off at several other stores before we began to loose steam, and decided to go to the beach instead. We stayed at the beach for a few hours before looking at each other and realizing that we were turning a scary shade of red. We spent the next hour or two trying to shower and shake the sand out of our ears, and ended up at a wonderful Thai restaurant.
We ended the night watching Where the Wild Things Are and eating Amanda’s wonderful peach kuchen until we passed out... Mom and I are in love with that movie. Because of it, we have a habit of howling at each other (a form of “I love you”) before leaving the house each day. Owouuuuuuuu, mommy!
