Best of #twinnieisms 2014

I finally joined Twitter in June this year.  It's been a long, hard road, trying to get myself out there in Twitter Land to share the shenanigans of my lovely seven year old twins Leon and Mya, captured through the #twinnieisms and other happenings that I find funny, even if no one else does.  I have yet to achieve world domination, but if the #twinnieisms brighten one persons day, I'll be a happy gal.  Here's a snapshot of their antics over the last few months.  Enjoy.
