sometimes i forget that my sister and i are actually grown up. it feels like yesterday that we were jumping off beds in our velcro-caped supergirl pajamas, playing barbie pool party or, during an intense game of hide-and-seek, squeezing ourselves behind the trunk of the elephant slide for the nth time. it still makes me laugh how we always thought that no one would find us there.
i can't get over that kristy's been engaged for 3 months! the reality of it hits me every now and then, mostly when we're outside and her pretty diamond shines and blinds me.
last weekend, our family threw a little belated engagement party for kristy and chris. it was so nice to take a break from studying, but more so, to celebrate love. with the people i love!
all of chris' nieces and nephews came, so mom was also out in full teacher mode:
and pop was out in full eating mode. (but that's not unusual.)
kristy, 39-5, my sister-skin-and-blister, my best friend:
i love you and am so happy that you found love with chris.
congratulations on the best "happily ever after" i know.
