back home again in Indiana
As many of you know, I visited my twin earlier this month in beautiful Florida.
And I have pictures! :D
Most of them are of our sock puppets... since you can only attatch one per post I sent half of them to her for posting.

I'll start with boring old "This is me at..." ones.

THIS IS ME... wait, not it's not, this is Hippy and her mum ;)

I sense I might be interrupting your flow here, Kristie, but I had to jump in and say these are so cool! I love the sarongs, people! Sarongs rock!!

Although the beach photos bring back painful memories of my trip to Myrtle Beach last week. My back has just finished peeling. And now that I've sufficiently grossed you all out, back to the lovely photos!

:lemon: <--- thread needed a small lemon
 
This is me sitting on a fountain in my Pantz and Larry Shirt waiting for.. something...
Bono's right, you DO always hate pictures of yourself.

People in the Supermarket: *give us weird looks*

Dude I look really wasted in that last one. And you can see my awful sunburn that is STILL PEELING, two weeks later...

You can see my funky sideways toes!

now we have... OUR U2 SOCK PUPPETS
these were many hours in the making
most of the hours were spent on Adam's Fro and Pants though
Here we have the Sock Wardrobe (and naked Edge if you look closely). It's missing most of Adam's clothes.

Elevation Socks venture outside.
(Edge Bono Larry Adam)

and I'd also like to say CHECK OUT EDGE'S SHIRT again if you missed it the first time, it truly is a replica worthy of your admiration.

Note: That plant is a split leaf hydrangea I think. My mom is totally envious of it and she points it out every time I mention my twin.

Up Next: Blurry JTree Bono....

Okay, I ATTEMPTED to make his hair...but it didn't work and they look like dreads, though you can't really see them in this pic. Bono can be seen decked out in his white tank top and black vest with his pants pulled up to his nipples and suspenders holding them up (though you can't see the suspenders)
