See ... we all turn into our parents...whether we like it or not!

My DD was about 7 and she asked me if she was going to look like me when she grew up. I told her yes, she would look like me, then when she got to be Grandmom's age, she'd look like her. OH my God did she wail!!!

lol. Well at least you didn't show up Christmas day wearing the same holiday sweater your mom was wearing! That was me this year.
Got to quit shopping at Walmart.....At least we had different colored shirts on underneath.

Hehe, I am so out of it. I still like Eddie Bauer and LLBean....practical clothes for the Pacific Northwest. I'm a bit of an outdoor nut, so I guess it fits.

Your father would be proud, lol

I still don't see me being my mom. She runs around in "blouses" (oversized cotton floral button up shirts) and stovepipe jeans.

ummm What's wrong with the Eddie Bauer look????? 80% of my closet is LL Bean and Bauer

Next thing you know on your next trip to WDW you will be wearing shorts down to your knees.......your black knee high socks with your sandals and of course a hat with windshield sunglasses, and it won't be for MNSSHP! I can picture it now!............oh and don't forget the camera!

My dad NEVER wore stuff like that, lol! If he wasn't in his postal uniform, it was jeans and a tshirt.

Too many tourists in NYC for the fashion police to bar a resident, though!

Next thing you know, you'll be using the term "slacks."

My 46 year old DH calls them "slacks" and our DD's and I give him grief over it all the time!

I'm sure Mr Bauer appreciates you, Rick!

 

[foxfire]

Watch out...these things sneak up on you! Next thing you know your mannerisms and habits may be mirroring his, too!

My DH has begun telling me he can see what I'm going to be like x-number of years from now. He says I'm getting more and more like my mom every day so all he has to do is keep a check on her to know what to expect from me. My mom's a cool lady so I can only hope I'll be like her years from now...well, in most ways!

Sorry for bumping this up folks, but I had to make sure I say that there is nothing wrong with Eddie Bauer or LL Bean. I have that stuff in my closet obviously! But there IS something wrong when you were everything at the same time. You look like a poster child of the Garanimals era, or a store mannequin. Either way, not good.

As for looking like my Dad, I guess it could be worse. I could look like Marty Feldman... (look, now someone is going to say they had a crush on the Feldman... just watch). Anyway, I thought of this post this past weekend when Joe and I were taking a stroll in midtown Manhattan. He was behind me and said, "Hey, wow! You're starting to walk like your father." I just hung my head down and sighed. And proceeded to have three large hot sakes at dinner.

Garanimals!!! I haven't thought of those in years!!! My ds, 32, could still use them. No wonder I got him an LLBean gift cert for Christmas!!!

 

[lecach]

I LOVED Garanimals! I wonder if they still make them? Now that I have a son I know they'd come in handy.

At least you weren't wearing your boxers as shorts, Rick . . .
