Auntie Amy

Today is the last day to sign up

for my Polka Dot Swap...

My sister flew home today. It was not

easy letting her go.

We are different in many ways. This week

we discovered how much we have in common.

We can both roll our tongues. Can you?

We have the same sense of humor!

We both need our quiet time, too. We

love the same movies (Goonies, Karate Kid,

Princess Bride), watermelon, Twilight,

Red Vines, hate clowns, baby leashes and

Celery Lemonade (inside joke).

Amy loved on Ruby this week,

traded Silly Bandz with Mandy and

Katie and played a million board games

with them, too.

I beat her at Smarty Pants- this time.

She took amazing pictures and stayed

up late learning to make jewelry. She

is a natural, but I was not surprised.

Amy told me she just wanted to relax and

hang with us. It was our pleasure.

I'm not big on fireworks at home but I

do love sparklers. Do you write your name

in sparkler? I do.

The 4th was lovely. We watched fireworks from

our backyard and it was awesome. Gorgeous

explosions rose above the trees. No crowds,

just bouquets in the sky.

Mmmmm....
We did have this much fun.

Memories are made of this.:)

Ruby hid in the van. Fireworks are scary.

My newest passion...

Sisters do grow up to be friends.

Miss you, Amy.
