Yeah, yeah...we all know that I am a little nuts with the t-shirt thing, and especially favor matching ones for my family.
Whether we're at Disney or Six Flags, or even just a neighborhood holiday festival, I admit... I am the dork who loves for her family to wear matching t-shirts. If not matching, then at least color coordinated. I have my scrapbooks to think of, people!
But it wasn't until perusing one of my favorite websites, Awkwardfamilyphotos.com, that I realized how perilously close I am to becoming this woman...
I mean...think about it. I, too, love the movie, 'Ghostbusters' (who doesn't?!), I ain't afraid o' no ghosts, and so... I can easily see myself falling into this abyss.
I can almost superimpose my children's faces on those two teens (minus the 80's hair!) Don't they look positively enthralled to have been dragged to a photography studio (by Sandy Duncan, no less?) to capture this little moment in their family's history?
I have to admit that I gasped when I saw this. It shook me to my very core, and I realized how close I am to the verge, my friends.
So my resolution for the new year?
To give a little leash with the whole 'matching' shirt thing. To realize that while I might like for all of us to be cutesy and look like we're all on the same totally awesome team... Team Linson... it is not always necessary. *sigh
I will make more of an effort, lest I become the woman in the above photo.
Aw, who am I kidding?!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from Team Linson! :)

As I was reading, I knew you wouldn't be able to give up your matching shirts. Glad you realized by the end of your blog that you couldn't.
Merry Christmas my wonderful friend.
