some things never change...

poor, mom.  after all these years, she still gets picked on.  you'd think that since her children are all grown up that some of their childish behaviors would go away, wouldn't you?  WRONG!!!

today my first family (mom, dad, marcy, andy and me)  went to breakfast at hometown buffet.  we had a nice time looking through some old pictures marcy had and laughing at memories.  we even got one of the workers there to take our picture.  isn't this a great looking family?

one of the memories we were laughing about was how andy, my brother, and i would put things in mom's hair when we were riding behind her in the car.  she used so much hairspray that she would NEVER feel all the decorations!!!  andy also found it fun to get a handful of toothpicks when we'd leave a restaurant and hurl them at her head to see if he could penetrate the hairspray force shield!  so funny!!!

today was no different, except this time we were going to catch it all on camera.  so andy collected his weapons and waited for mom to step outside...

as soon as she was in front of him, the attack began!  he started launching the toothpicks at her head, and she started screaming at him {as usual}!  i had a hard time getting pictures because i was laughing so hard!

he followed her all the way to the car pelting her with toothpicks!  dad picked up the ones that bounced off and helped andy with his mission!  poor, mom!  some things never change...

but the funniest part of all this is that after we left the restaurant, mom, marcy and i went shopping.  they wanted to go to some shoe store down the street, so we did.  mom was standing at the counter at this fancy shoe store {where the people actually wait on you and their shoes are expensive} and this prim and proper lady who worked there said, "ma'am if you'll bend over a little, i'll get that fuzz out of your hair."  so mom bent her head and guess what the lady pulled out....A TOOTHPICK!!!  {i am sitting here chuckling as i type this!}

SO FUNNY!!!!!!!!!!!
