Happy B-day Mandi!!

So, today is the 27th time my sister and I have been the same age. We were born one week short of a year apart, so we share the same age for a few days. It's crazy how much has happened in our lives. I just wanted to tell my sis happy b-day and share some pictures of her with the rest of you. I'm sure you'll be SO happy with me Mandi!

This is our older bro, Aaron, me, and Mandi at the lake. Check out the AWESOME clothes! Don't ya love Mandi's pig tails.

Christmas, 1986. Mandi is front and center. Nice head tilt. She learned it from me.

This is the tom-boy picture. She was way into sports when we were kids. The kid next to her is our cousin Josh. What great times.


This was Easter in Solvang, CA. We all had matching dresses. Ugh.

I think this was right before we moved to Utah.

High school. We got to meet Jim Brickman. Though we both liked him, Mandi had one up on me since she could actually play his music while I could only listen. She's a great piano player for those who do not know.
I wish I could post more pictures of my lil' sis. She's a great friend and I can't believe we are 27 now. We both have our three little kids and crazy lives, but we're still sisters. I hope you have a great b-day even though you can't be with me :) LOVE YA!

27 huh? I think it's crazy that you guys are the same age...And wow, look at all of us! I love old pics- I didn't realize what a chubby little toddler I was! Thanks for having a girl that looks like me, now I don't have to!

Yeah, THANKS Hayley for the pictures. I've forgotten how stylish I was in those 80's blue shorts. ...and what lake was that, anyway? It looks more like a quarry drainage ditch.
