"Sisters never quite forgive each other for what happened when they were five"....

OMG - so true! Em - age 2; me - age 7. "Meany" (Em) hits me upside the head with MY barbie doll! I'll never forget it.....yet love her just the same! <3

So today, in my being bummed that she can't meet me for lunch b/c she's a big-girl/working girl now, I wanted to give 'mi hermana' a shout-out!

"Sisters are different flowers from the same garden"
"Sister to sister we will always be, a couple nuts from the family tree"

"A sister is a little bit of childhood that can never be lost"

"I smil because you're my sister; I laugh because there's nothing you can do about it!"

LOVE YOU, EM!

Put a smile on my face!

so....in the midst of my photo searching for my new found blog inspiration, I came across this picture.
1st thought - look how small my little buddy was....man how time flies!
2nd thought - my hair actually looked pretty nice that day....
3rd thought - see, i AM funny (or crazy - ha)! even if only my child thinks so.

a picture says 1,000 words....and this one put a smile on my face!

A sweet resemblance...

My Best Friend's Wedding

June 25. 2011 ~ Vesuvius Vineyards

in honor of her, this post is in champagne colored Georgia font :) a beautiful day. super special occasion. perfect weather. wonderful people. full of love. lots-o-fun. precious moments. bounds of memories. beautiful bride. loving & giddy groom. and one awesome ring-bearer. ;)


i had prayed for and dreamed of her big day for a long time. all i wanted was for her to find a true, unconditional love and the special mate that she deserves. and she did. and it was such a blessing for me to be such a special part of her big day. i so look forward to all the memories that our families will share in the future. so proud of jenny & brian and wish them all the happiness in the world.


....a little piece of my MOH-jo speech:


"It is said that a best friend is:
* Someone you always have a good time with
* Someone you believe you can trust your life with
* The first person you call when the most amazing things happen in your life, and when the most horrific incidents happen
* The one you will always remember no matter what comes about because they're like real family
* A best friends gives you the opinion you usually care most about and the one who tells you the things you absolutely need to hear regardless of whether you want to or not
* They are the person you always enjoy being around and never get sick of
* Someone you don't envy and the person you are always grateful to have as a friend
* They always forgive

* They're the one who even though you may drift apart, when the time comes for them to hug you or congratulate yo or console you....they are the #1 person you want to see because they are the person you've confided the most in and they are the person who knows you best!


All of these things describe the special friends that has grown between me & Besty.....


....so during happy occasions or in times of trouble; we've come to know that we can always count on each other!"

Inspiration...

I've been inspired...by my "besty". I need to be a better blogger. It's such a fun way to keep a little journal of life! So here's to a new start. I'M GOING TO DO BETTER! Besty - hold me to it!
