Happy Birthday Lil Sis!


My best pal/worst enemy during our childhood years of sharing a room is a tiny bit older today, but as fabulous as ever!


Here she is during her 'courting days', when Bob Davis was wooing her. Lucky guy, he won her heart even though he was totally rocking the porn stashe and some kinda crazy hairdo...
B, I love ya! Who else would consent to being the dog, Ken or Midge when I was forced by Mom to let her play with me? Who else saved up her allowance money and bought her own fancy-schmancy bike (The White Rose, I still envy you for that even tho I was too retarded to even RIDE a bike at the time)? Who else asked Dad every week for $10.00 and finally got it, much to our disbelief? Who else truly earned her nickname "Beaner Cleaner" by virtue of being the white tornado when it came to housework? And finally, who else could have talked me into impersonating some sort of mafia hit woman/process server in order to get the world's worst renter out of the Frontier Village ghetto house???
Happy happy birthday!!!

Katie, you're making me laugh which is nice since I just sent a student to the office.

BZ, you are one of my favorite Sundstrom aunts (for sure tied for fav!). Thanks for being a second mom to us, and letting Cara and I run amock in your yard with Kip and Megs. So many of my happiest childhood memories are tied to you Davis'. Some of my worst too (Kip telling us that Darth Vador was Luke's father). I hope you have an amazing day, spending it with children and grandchildren, and perhaps your husband. We'll have to celebrate the big day when I come over this summer!

ahhhhhh. I just let out a big guffaw on that last one, w/out you those creeps would probably still be in that house and we would still own it//YIKES!! Katie I loved all your letters and code, too bad I didn't stick with it, I now might be able to understand half of your crazy "text" posts!! By the way that code you posted is very close to some of the ones you sent in the day. L I loved you for my big sister, and even though I was stuck being Midge or the Little House on the Prairie baby/dog I got to play with you and your bf Susan Evans, what more could a lil sis ask for? A lot of who I am I owe to you. B

Oh Kate, I SO remember that. I think I was a tad bit jealous even. She's always been good at codes and pig latin. Lavs, I loved it and that picture, where do you find these perfect photos?! I too was cracking up at pretty much everything you wrote. You're a hoot.

and remember the big bike theft ring we broke up (or something)? that Frontier Village was a hotbed of craziness. And did I ever tell you all about the time I posed as the Frontier Hts Homeowner's Assn to make our retard neighbors take down their 'Ponderosa' style entry gate over their asphalt driveway? A master stroke. Katie you did crack me up with your super code! You and the B had that down.

Lavs - you must expand on the Frontier Village capers - one for our book!!!

Laurie said...

oh I have a million of em. You had to be crafty to survive there!

zaideafraidey said...

I do so remember the Ponderosa, if that place could possibly get any uglier...and who would believe there was a home owners assoc, what was there to protect??? Fun times!!

Hey, that was High Class up in that neck of the woods in the olden days!
