They're basically America's awesome kid sisters, and the inauguration was their day to shine.
........


9. And then they made THESE FACES while Malia gave the peace sign.



13: THIS AMAZING MOMENT HAPPENED, when Malia expertly photobombed her sister's photo of her parents kissing.




20. Because Malia kissed her dad in front of the whole world even though it's against teen code.

1. Their gorgeous coats

alone were reason enough. (Which may already be on the list. I haven't read it yet. Going there now.)

K&R


Edit to add: Their coats were the first thing on the list! Funny, that! Lol.

[okwmember]

7. I do suspect that Michelle and Malia

got their gloves mixed up. But the whole family is flawless.

[Control-Z]

12. They may have swapped.

Whatever was done, I believe, was intentional. Either way, it worked.

16. I commented yesterday on how..

I love Michelle's and their girls' lavender coordination.

9. i loved their purple coats

[Control-Z]

11. Yes!!

My daughter and I practically drooled. My favorite colors, all - gloves, coats, scarves and dresses. Fantastic!

[amuse bouche]

21. Gorgeous

They looked like raspberry and blueberry ice cream

[bluestateguy]

2. Someday they'll be old enough to give interviews

and it will be interesting to hear what they have to say.

3. Thank You, ehrnst!!!

That was Great! I just love our two First daughters.

Love the photos and the captions!

4. FOX NEWS translation : "Black teenage girls commit grand theft in D.C."

[riderinthestorm]

15. I literally laughed out loud at this. Thanks for that! nt

[LuckyLib]

31. So true! Faux News' twists to reality on a daily basis. LOL!

[graywarrior]

5. Wicked cool!

[warrprayer]

6. It was like seeing John F. Kennedys family again

bullets can't kill a dream.

[Laochtine]

28. Bullets can't kill the dream

Only slow it down

[surrealAmerican]

8. ... and they didn't even mention that ...

... Sasha totally rocks a sleeveless dress (just like her mom).

[longship]

10. R&K for the happy tears in my eyes. nt

[Yavin4]

13. Sansa and Arrya Stark n/t

[DevonRex]

14. They are sooo cute together!

They actually like each other. Sometimes teen sibling relationships can be strained even when they love each other dearly, especially sisters. I have several myself, so i know what I'm talking about. Silly arguments over which one of you stole my favorite hairbrush can ruin a day. Every parent on earth knows that big events increase the likelihood of the kids not getting along as well. And that goes for every family - Large, small, rich, poor, religious, atheist, whatever. But I've never seen these two girls look askance at each other.

32. I loved the pic I saw where Malia has her arm around Sasha's shoulders,

so affectionately, not at all nasty as siblings that age sometimes are.

I'm going to go look for that picture.

[tblue37]

33. Never mind--post #24 below has an angle of the pic I mean. nt

[DevonRex]

37. Yeah, real affection

and happiness. No irritation or anything. I looked for it, too. Lots of kids in my family growing up and I have lots mof nieces and nephews so I know how they can be. These girls are special together.

[Cha]

17. This is Fun! Thanks ehrnst!

23. So congrats to Sasha and Malia for being awesome and remaining cool even when this happened:


I wondered who this guy was sitting behind them..

19. Because they laughed with their cousin who has a cool haircut

[underthematrix]

25. They are first cousins. Michelle's brother is his dad and the blonde woman

is his stepmom. The cousins spend a lot of time together. He also has a sister who was sitting behind Sasha. The little Indonesian (well she's half) is a first cousin as well. Her mother is Obama's little sister.

[Cha]

27. Thank you, underthematrix!

Maya is the only one I recognized.. and, I can see now that's her daughter. I had no idea about Craig Robinson's family. Good looking kids.

18. And yet once again, Boehner is weeping in that last photo!

Sheesh, that guy must cry at tire center grand openings.

[shenmue]

19. Oh my stars, the President's family is normal and happy and has a sense of humor?

What will happen to the teabaggers? This is just too much for them to understand.

[rurallib]

20. I have 2 girls, two years apart

They remind me so much of what we went through with them growing up.

Warning to the Obamas - if they are like mine, Sasha will be your conscience - forever.

[JaneyVee]

22. Look at Boehner's face.

[bluestate10]

38. Look like the Speaker was about to start crying and was trying to hold back the tears.

His wife was watching with a smile on her face, the first picture that I saw of her smiling ever. I think Boner is a decent person, even as I disagree 100% with what he stands for politically and will fight until hell freezes over not to let his version of america become a reality.

[Eleanors38]

23. Goodness, Malia will outgrow her mom in, what, 2yrs.? One?

[Tx4obama]

24. In the first photo up in the OP seated behind Sasha and Malia are ...

... Obama's sister Maya, her daughter, and husband.

I wish Maya had been looking forward instead of turning her head.

I have not been able to find hardly any photos of Maya at the inauguration - grrr.




Edited to add...

Here's a fairly good photo of Maya (behind Sasha)

[MindandSoul]

26. They are both very pretty girls, and they look so. . .normal! I cannot detect an oz of arrogance!

[sad-cafe]

29. they are lovely

and spunky

[We People]

39. I'll bet lots of adolescent hearts were broken that day at the sight of these beautiful sisters!

They also both happened to be wearing my two favorite colors!

[Sugarcoated]

34. My granddaughters do the same

it's not "gang" signs dumb dumb.

[The Midway Rebel]

35. Alerted on your bullshit troll.

Enjoy your stay.

[Sugarcoated]

36. Btw

your bitterness gives me great pleasure
