2) This requires more of an explanation. Today I was shopping in the jewelry section of Target, and can I just say I love jewelry? So, I was perusing all of their fun, chunky necklaces, earrings, and headbands, trying to decide which to buy. Next to me, I notice two young girls browsing the exact jewelry I was. I never actually looked at their faces until they started giggling. I found them both smiling at me, and I realized they were girls in my ward. They were, in fact, in my Primary. They are 10 (one possibly 9). Why would this be disturbing, you might ask? Because I have the same fashion taste as a 10 year old girl. Who lives in my ward. Next thing you know, I'll be calling her up to coordinate what we're wearing to Church on Sunday, while giggling hysterically about our latest crush and the newest Hannah Montana episode.
Disturbing.

Oh so funny. We don't FEEL like we are getting older...so why should our tastes change?
You are keeping up with what is hip! That shouldn't be too disturbing. But I know what you mean. I have a problem when the 12-year-old babysitter shows up in a shirt I just bought at American Eagle. I now boycott that store. You know what is disturbing me today? The Spice Girls reunion.
very funny! I am thinking your taste isn't too young they are trying to be too old. I am with Holly-nobody want to re visit the spice girls.
Haha! Thats funny! Well, you are always welcomed to come shop at my jewelry store and you won't come across any teeny boppers.
did anybody even listen to the spice girls the first time around? i'm sorry kristi, but that story just made me laugh... i have no advice to offer & you're probably thankful.
you are the accessories queen! talk about setting a good example for the next generation! you're just teaching them what's cool.
funny! You hit it right on the head with the Hannah Montana thing too. My 6 1/2 yr. old looooves Hannah. You just must be a hip mom :)
You know it's funny you mention the whole flames on the car bit. I almost got in an accident this morning because I was staring in absolute disbelief at the car beside me. It was a brand new Suburban with lightening bolts down the side. WHAT?? Who does that? Lightening bolts, flames, eagles, your last name, all of these should be avoided at all costs.
Oh hee hee...I'm still giggling. Well at least you keep up with the styles. Spice girls? Really? I used to make fun a boyfriend in highschool because HE LOVED THE SPICE GIRLS! What a dork! Oh how sad that I dated him!
You know.....is there an age where you just have to shop at Cold Water Creek or Talbots? Is it required once you hit 30 or maybe 40? Please tell me no.
hey, hey. you got naomi out commenting! that's one step closer to getting her to be a blogger! that will be a great day. i'd love to hear what naomi has to say on a day to day basis. not to mention her youtube links.
Now that you mention Coldwater Creek--this will be my last disturbing thing to add: I passed Coldwater Creek today at the mall, and noticed a teenage boy working there--it made me sad. Because a) he will never meet any cute girls working there, or b) he doesn't want to meet any cute girls. Either way, a little sad. What teenage boy works at Coldwater Creek?
If you like jewelry, Coldwater Creek actually has some cute stuff. Not as hip and reasonably priced as Target, but you definately will never see any ten year olds there.
