My sister...


is AMAZING. It's not her birthday, there is really nothing particularly special about today, but I just had a need to tell the blogging world that I am indeed blessed to have such an incredible person in my life. She is such a wonderful friend, brilliant at everything she does, and goes out of her way to show people how much she cares (example: planning my entire wedding including... to name just a few... taking engagement and bridal photos, choosing decorations and music, designing and printing invitations, basically being in charge of the entire reception... all while working and raising 4 little kids.)


We've always been close, even through the years when I was annoying and always wanted to borrow her clothes.

She is the perfectionist in the family.
She has always been really funny... and very creative at finding ways to have fun.
I'm not sure why she gave me a mullet here, though.

My mom used to dress us alike, which I probably thought was cool.


As you can see, I followed her everywhere. Poor girl.

Thanks for being a great big sister, Mollie! Can you imagine your life without your siblings? It sure would have been more boring...

A month and counting...

We've been married one month today. Ahh... sweet, isn't it? I am going to post pics a little backwards because I don't have any from the wedding yet. SO- here's a couple from our trip to the amazing Playa del Carmen where we are already dreaming of returning next year. (We could have easily stayed another week.... 6 days was not long enough!)



I don't think that's our footprint...





This place is amazing- my mouth fell open when we stepped on the resort.





It was the perfect time of year to be at the beach- gorgeous!



This tree was too big to fit in the frame.



It really couldn't have been a better trip. I'll have to tell you in a later post about an incredible discovery! Love to all...
