That was Ruby Sue?

The little girl with the snake that Eddie told to go inside and work on her typing? He said "She must have grew a whole foot since you last saw her" and the last time we saw her was Christmas Vacation, apparently Ruby Sue doesn't age at all cause shes still a kid. Even though Rusty, Audrey and everyone else is years older after Christmas Vacation and Ruby Sue still looks to be 8 years old.

Rusty was clearly like 12 or 13 in Christmas Vacation and around 18 or 19 in Vegas Vacation, yet Ruby Sue looks to be the exact same age still that she was in Christmas Vacation.

Thats what i love about these high school girls, i get older they stay the same age.

Um, hate to break it to you, but all of the children in these Vacation movies are portrayed by different actors for every new installment.

Yeah but they at least Age Rusty and Audrey as the movies went on they didn't keep them the same age. I understand they change actors but they got appropriately aged actors for how old Rusty and Audrey should be.

I was thinking the same thing yesterday when it was on TV, Ruby Sue went from a long blonde haired girl to, well they kind of did the same thing with her they did with Audrey, and she still ain't any older 10 years later.

You could argue that because Eddie is basically poor, they don't have enough food for their children to grow properly.

I doubt that meternal--- He had the ability to sprinkle Yuban coffee on various things.

That would make 3 Christmas' I've saved, vs. 8 that I've ruined; two were kind of a draw..

Anthony Michael Hall (Rusty) was 15 and 17 in Vacation and European Vacation, respectively.
John Galecki was 14 in Christmas Vacation.
Ethan Embry was 19 in Vegas vacation.

Dana Hill (Audrey) was 19 in Vacation.
Dana Barron was 19 in European Vacation.
Juliette Lewis was 16 in Christmas Vacation.
Marisol Nichols was 24 in Vegas Vacation

The ages of Rusty and Audrey have varied fairly wildly.

Perhaps they named another child Ruby Sue, they are white trash after all and have a lot of kids.
