It’s impossible to comment on my birthday without giving a shout-out to my womb-mate, Loraina. (I am the composed one on the left, Loraina is the spaz on the right. Dude. She still smiles like that.)
Happy birthday, Fred.
We’re getting damn old, you know that?
xoxox
Flee.
P.S. Every year on my birthday I totally freak out some of my readers because they have no idea that I am an identical twin.
Yup.
I am.
And?
She sings opera, too.
Here is proof…a photographic montage of birthday’s through the early years:
ZERO: (I have no idea which of us is which. I do know that my mom’s backcomb lasted pretty damn well during labor and I think my father was channeling George Hamilton’s tanning god, but still…we’re a pretty damn good looking family for the 70′s.)
ONE (I’m on the left, Loraina is on the right. You can tell because of our highchairs.)
TWO (Again, look at the high chair. I’m on the right this time.)
THREE (What the hell is up with this photo? MY SISTER IS SITTING IN MY HIGHCHAIR!!!! Everyone KNOWS I had the cute, yet uncomfortable antique carved chair and she got the plain, comfortable one! Dude. I so must protest this!)
FOUR (I’m on the left, Loraina is on the right. The odd, cross-eyed boy in the middle is my older brother, Brad. He used to freak me out by telling me about “The Noons”. They lived in our basement and came out at noon every day. He loved to throw me in the basement in our cement fruit room in the dark right before noon and lock the door. I named my second born after him, so obviously I got over it.)
FIVE: (You should know which is which at this point, so I’ll letcha figure it out on your own.)
I think we’ll stop there because this is the point where my cuteness peaked and really…who wants to see the many, many awkward years, anyway???? :)



















Happy Birthday!!! And puh-leeze on the peak! :)
HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!
What about “a Whore with a S’More!”
xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
and
oxoxxoxoxoxoxoxo
i’m an identical twin too and it sure would have been nice if my parents had given us SOMETHING to tell us apart by. ;)
Well, crud–if 34 makes you old, then I’ll be a geezer next month when I turn 35.
HAPPY BIRFDAY!
(I’m 34 too so I say with love: 34 also rhymes with dirty whore. ha ha ha!)
*smooch*
Happy Birthday!
well happy birthday

a new computer
Happy Birthday! I’m not thrown by the twins thing, I’m thrown by the blonde thing!
xoxo
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I could totally tell that you were on the left in photo #1! Since I’m new to All Things Loralee, I’m still learning about you. So this Twin story is exciting news for me.
My mother-in-law is an identical twin, only the genius OB my grandmother-in-law went to had no idea the woman was pregnant with twins. So when the MIL was born, she was named Sharon Frances. You know, the named they picked out for a girl. Ten minutes later, when her twin sister magically appeared, they named her… Karen Frances. SURPRISE!
Their names are Sharon and Karen.
Sometimes I call them The Verb Twins, Sharing and Caring… nobody finds it as funny as I do.
But I digress.
Anyway……
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(p.s. The cuteness did not peak. And you have the most stunning eyes I have ever seen.)
Well, you’re definitely not a bore, so that one is out, too.
Happy Birthday!
OH, and I sent you a message on sale Laptops! I didn’t want to post it publicly so that you have a shot at getting one!
Happy Birthday! Any plans to repeat the Titanic dinner party? If there ever are I will fly back to witness it!
Happy Birthday! Hope it’s a good one!

Happy Birthday, friend!
YOU ARE KEEPING SECRETS FROM ME?
I wish you BOTH a happy birthday. Because I can’t tell which one is which, even with your clever high-chairy system!
Imagine my utter surprise when I found your post in amongst my Google Reader feeds!!
I too am 34 today!!!!!!! November 7th must be a very auspicious day – only the best were born!!
that’s cool you’re a twin! happy birthday. and i hate you because you’re younger than me. :P
Happy Birthday, Miz twin! You are younger than my older son. You make sure your pregnant self has a wicked good cake.
Ooooh Happy Birthday to your gorgeous self.

You totally rocked that highchair.
Happy Birthday Loralee (and your sis!)

Happy Birthday Loralee!
I had no idea you were a twin, either. Ya’ll are totally cute.
p.s. We had the same paneling and odd pots and pans assortment on the wall and tanning addiction…gotta love the 70s.
Identical twins fascinate me. Fraternal twins aren’t rare these days, but identical twins remain something special.
Happy Birthday to you and your sister. Have a wonderful day, and a fabulous year. It’s gonna be great – this 34th year! (You’re still young.)
Happy Birthday!

P.S. Did you ALWAYS dress alike, or was this just a birthday thing?
P.P.S. You should show us more pics–I’m curious to see what you guys looked like in your teens!
Happy Birthday! And YES I would love to see pictures of you two in your teens. My husband is an identical twin and I love looking at pictures of them, trying to figure out who is who.
Happy Birthday to you both!
