A rare thing happened Saturday. No, really it started Friday night - during GNO (girls night out). Right in the middle of seedling discussion and fashioning crepe paper iceland poppies (I almost wrote poopies - BIG difference whew! glad I caught it before you would have read it) - there was a lot of estrogen flowing in and through the house; well, in walks the Richard barely here from Washington. He didn't have any feminine presence to add to the group, but we kept him anyway. And when his twin brother Aaron and Josh came in, the GNO took a new direction. That's when I found out they would be refereeing a basketball game together the next morning. Well, I had to be there. What a treat - I have no trouble telling them apart until I saw them dressed exactly alike running around a basketball court gesticulating in the same manner. It was like poetry! Between curt tweets, clear calls, and straight-forward arm signals there was no sloppy or unfair ball or body handling going on. The only complaint I heard was from a disgruntled, pouty player But I also heard his coach explain something about "feet planted" and "will always be called like that" and "it's all good, buddy". There must be some other perks to having an identical look alike - players, coaches and crowd have a hard time knowing who to holler at for disagreeable calls (of which there really were none, they are THAT good!)
(Note: the edit looked so good, but publishing it chopped off the picture and I don't know how to fix it, sorry)
O-Tay, Kenningtons. Can you name that twin? Is it Richard and Aaron, or Aaron and Richard? Don't think one is taller than the other, they're not. The ground they are standing on is sloped.
Even their SHOES are the same fer Pete's sake, and not planned. Look alike, think alike, love 'em lots.
Their referee uniforms are great, but their pilot and air traffic controller uniforms are even cooler. And to think they used to sass their big sisters and ride around the house on little green worms with four wheels on the floor (sometimes) and handle bars sticking out of their heads (the worms, not the twins). What do YOU remember about these g'lookin' guys when they were squirts?
