She Did Well, Didn't She?

Hi all! I'm back from beautiful Yellowstone and Jackson Hole, WY. What a great trip...more on that later. This post is about my sister. Didn't she do a fantastic job filling in? I think so. I was cracking up when I called her on my way into the park and she read me her first post. Quite entertaining...

In addition to commending her for being a great blogging mistress, I also have to thank her for buying this lovely little gem for Mr. Wonderful and me. She was quite proud of herself for finding this at some jewelry party she attended—and we were, of course, quite impressed by the selection. After I put it on Mr. W for this picture, he forgot to take it off and when it spilled out of his shirt as he laid on the bed to read, I almost called him Vinny.

I saw the pic before I read the post and I was getting ready to email you the name of a great place to get a wax. Then, I realized it was Mr. W's chest and not yours. Whew!

Your Big Sis Rocks. Oh, and she adopted me into the family so I will be expecting a birthday present this year. But none of that fingernail or bellybutton art!

Yikes! Same reaction here as the first two comments. Especially with your hand in the pic. It totally appears to be a woman with a scary hairy chest.

Having trouble shaking that nasty thought. At least your sis didn't gross me out. Gee, welcome back. :-)

Vinny. Ha!

Your sis did a great job! If I asked mine to fill in, she'd laugh directly in my face.

I am speechless. That is an amazing piece of man-jewelry and the chest hair really sets it off.

Big Sis did an AWESOME job. I laughed out loud as I read her posts!

Dingo - Come on! You know I wax my chest! If I didn't, my sports bra would give me a rash everytime I ran and it rubbed against my Austin Powers' hairmat...

Nilsa - You too?! Sheesh! I'm a blonde - the hair on my chest is much lighter than the stuff in the picture. :P

Mandy - Haha you're 24k awesome for coming up with that brilliant comment.

Geekhiker - Thanks! I'll send you a link to all the pictures if you'd like to see them.

Wow TWA - If you're lucky, I'll send you a lock of my chest hair for Christmas.

JustRun - You might be surprised! My sis was hesitant, but as you can see, she ate it right up after she started writing!

Michael - Awe, you're so sweet! Maybe if I organize a blogger meetup for all us So Calers, I'll bring sister along.

Brookem - Thanks sweetpea! I'm sure my sister will be touched to hear that.

Lara - You can totally touch the chest hair when you come home if you want. It'll make him get all flustered.

Oh my Gosh - I love you all!!!! This blog thing is addicting, I tell you! Thank you for such a warm welcome into the blogging world. I'm so glad my baby sister is back. I ran out of stories. Enjoy the ongoing tales of Mr. W!
