When our nanna gave us this photo a few years ago , it absolutely caused hysterics. I mean it seems like a normal enough childhood photo however it really is not. You see this photo was taken at my nanna and grandad's house. Again normal enough - except for the fact that it would appear that I am jumping on the lounge, have my feet up on it etc. We used to go to nanna and grandad's every week for dinner - well at least that is my memory - maybe they came to our house not quite sure on those details. Basically we did see them a lot though. Whenever we went to nanna and grandad's though there were a heap of rules -like
* Don't jump on the lounge
* Don't ask nanna for ANYTHING
* Don't touch the TV ( My sister did once and grandad caught her and I'm pretty sure she got the fright of her life)
* Use your manners etc etc
* Be seen and not heard - and all that jazz
Now my grandparents were not mean, by an stretch of the imagination - the rules were more mum and dad's thing. Nanna has said in recent years that they always enjoyed our visits because we were so delightful and well behaved ( unlike some of the other grandkids I think) . So the fact that this photo demonstrates some of the rules being broken is hilarious. To me anyway.

and you are NOT a ruler breaker by nature.
Is it also revealing that you are doing exercises and Jojo is clutching a wallet ?
If I look closely...you are BOTH wearing red !
Isn't it always the way, probably the only time you put your feet on their lounge and you (such a good little girl) get caught and even get a photo to prove your misdemeanor.
i'm pretty sure i DID NOT get in trouble. I'm sure if mum had seen us doing this I would have though.
