yesterday.
my sister's birthday was yesterday and i forgot to send her birthday greetings on the blog!
shame shame….
well, lorel i went searching for a picture of you to use.
i came across this one first.
one of my FAVorites.
i miss you.
i think you have one of the best laughs in the world.
my sister plays the washboard.
she loves zydeco music.
and dancing.
then i found this set of pictures:
ice cream at bread basket…
eating it on the steps of the historical society…
i love all these pics.
my sister is an art teacher.
she majored in ART in college.
i think that is really amazing….most people don't even draw…and she majored in it!
she is loved.
by me and our family.
and her family and her friends.
then i found these.
thank goodness there is not video footage of that night.
we always have a good time together.
always.
i can't wait for our trip that we have to take before i turn 35.
i put it on the list so IT MUST BE DONE.
you should put it on your list so it really MUST be done if we both have it.
ok….i WILL call you today.
i love you.
forever.
happy birthday to the best big sister.
i wish i could hug you today.
(ps…those pee wee herman quotes last week…they were just for you. i knew you'd love that!)
purejoy - how fun to have a sister. one of life’s most precious gifts. i heart mine, too. she’s 9 years older and one of my best friends, even though we live 700 miles apart. :'(
and any girl that likes pee wee is a friend of mine. i love him even though he’s kind off…
anyways, enjoyed my visit here as usual!!!
enjoy this journey you are on… savor every moment, even the preparation.
Jessica Reed - Hey, I love you blog, and was kind of bummed because when I clicked on your most recent entry its a dead link. Maybe it’s just me, I’m using blogger.
Sara Cameli - I totally knew those pee wee’s were for Lorel, I cracked up and could hear it in my head. hee hee.
Kate - Oh, you guys are so cute! Meg, you look beautiful in that pic!!
chasity - you and your sister have beautiful smiles.
thebluemuse - Having a sister is the best, a built-in best friend for life! The bubble picture is my favorite, too…makes me think of warm, lazy summer nights.
candace - Yay for big sisters and happy birthdays and blurry nights of having fun!
Heather R. - I have two girls…they are fun loving sisters like you two. I hope she was spoiled on her birthday and I know she’ll love your post. ~Heather R.
Kelly - Happy Birthday to your sister! I especially like the bubbles pic! Kelly
Whitni - Hey totally random but would it be okay if I used some of your 365 pictures in my new blog header. Not like of your children or anything just like the polka dot rain boots and that colorful quilt. I tried to find your email address but my computer didn’t do anything when I clicked on your email me link. Your pictures are always so beautiful! Just let me know! Thanks!
Whitni
DreamGirlLisa - What a nice present for your sis…sistes are the best!
Dana D @BoysMyJoys - HAPPY BIRTHDAY, LOREL!
Meg~ I almost choked on my dinner tonight as I flipped thru my just purchased copy of Flea Market Style… and it’s all your fault!!! Congratulations of being featured in the new magazine! That is awesome!
Beth - Oh! And happy birthday Lorel!! I’m an art teacher too 🙂
Beth - I think I told you this before, but my older sister and I went on a trip together to Canada for her 50th birthday. It was so much fun. You should definitely go on a trip with her, just the two of you. I wish there WAS video footage of those pictures of you dancing. Looks like too much fun!
susan - how sweet! great pics 🙂 happy birthday to you sister!
Courtney Walsh - so sweet. I seriously miss my sister since she moved to Georgia. I was thinking the other night that I never laugh–like truly, really, belly laugh with anyone else!
I wish my girl had a sister. 🙁
but not enough to try for #4!! lol
Sweet post!
sarah - Happy Birthday Lorel!
Tracy - Aww… happy birthday to your sister and what great pictures! I miss my sister too but she’s my “baby” sister. Thanks for sharing! :o)
Staci Danford - Such fun pictures and such kind words.. Any sister would be tickled over to have someone say such nice things (and mean them)…. Made me wish I had a sister for sure..
Staci
lorel - Oh Meg. Thanks so much. I can’t tell you how this just made my day. You are a great sister. I am so lucky to have you. Thank you thank you thank you!
