Happy Happy Birthday!!!!

So, you've all probably heard that there is a special bond between sisters... and that's pretty much true!
I have been beyond blessed with mine and this weekend she celebrated her 23rd birthday! Celebrating her life to me is much more than just another day. On Saturday, I constantly thanked God for her life and the relationship that we have. I am very careful not to take it for granted and I know that we are never promised tomorrow! 

I am so thankful for all of the memories that we share!


To the one who... 
sort of had to let me be her MOH... 


loves me for who I am... 


danced with me... 

is not ashamed to strike a pose... 

I can tell anything to... 

loves matching Christmas pjs as much as I do... 

loves Disney... 

set great examples for me :)...


always threw me under the bus and blamed things on me as a child... 



was there with me for many "firsts"...

always has my back (thanks to mom)...

still loves Santa as much as I do... 

let me in on blowing out your birthday candles... 

played dress up with me... 

was rocking that Kenny Chesney t-shirt at Disney... 

wore bright blue stick on fingernails to church on Easter Sunday with me... 






was at every game my senior year... 



slept with me for most of my lifetime... 


knows what part is yours and what part is mine... 


made fun of me for not wearing pants Christmas shopping... 




























welcomed me home from the hospital... 

is smart... 


made football Fridays more fun... 




loves ice cream as much as me and has no shame... 

loves me even when I gash up my face the week of your wedding... 

sleeps with me the night before your wedding just where I would be satisfied... 

was the most beautiful bride there ever has been... 

and to the one whose picture I folded up and put in my pocket on January 31, 2010... 
Only to pull it out in that hospital bathroom to beg and plead with God to spare your life...


He did, and I'm forever grateful! I know He is still working and is doing great things with your life. 
I hope that this is the best year ever!! I love you!!!
