Flashback Friday

I love posed sweet pictures and 
 have lots of those of my sister and I from when we were growing up.  

But I also love those pictures that tell part of a story
or those that make you wonder what was going on as it was taken. 

This picture is one of those pictures and I love it!


Here is what I do know about this picture.

It was taken on our front porch-
 before my sweet mother let my sister and
 I pick out the new color of our house-
 which was a bright turquoise color. 

I'm pretty sure I am two in this picture which means my sister is 5. 

Judging by our matching clothes it was Easter 
because we ALWAYS wore matching clothes on Easter. 

Clothes that my mother
 (a single mother trying to support two little girls all by herself with no support)
sewed for us. 

However, judging by the look on our faces, 
there was obviously something else going on in this picture. 

What it looks like to me is that my sister 
(who is standing there looking all sweet and innocent)
had just done something to me and
 I was pointing at her and running to tell on her. 

It cracks me up every time I look at it. 

So, what do you think was going on? 
Any ideas?
