After the crazy night before, it was off to Amelia Street, where Alison works as a sitter over Mardi Gras. Most of her charges were riding in Tucks (which follows Iris), so she had some free time to hang out with her cousins.
The twins are 8- Marisa is dark haired and normally the shy one, Nadia the lighter haired and bold as brass tacks.
Marisa held her own, though- she really loved it, and loved that hat with all the balls. Lots of compliments came her way, as they did for Alison when she first wore the hat a couple of years ago. She tried out the ladder, being up at eye level worked out well, and gave her dad and my brother’s shoulders a rest.
Nadia opted for the freedom of the street, picking out her target, waving and jumping, and both girls made out like bandits.
