Never were there such devoted sisters

This weekend my big sister Julie visited. It was one of the best weekends I have had in awhile. We laughed and talked a lot. We just relaxed and watched some Olympics complete with Julie's hilarious commentary. We spent Saturday in beautiful Sandpoint having lunch at my in-law's lake house and giving them a break getting it ready for the next renters. We walked around Sandpoint and had delicious ice cream and yummy chocolate truffles.
But mostly, Julie and I did our sister thing. Julie was my first best friend, my first teacher, and really my first hero. Being nearly six and a half years older than me, Julie was my idol. I did everything she did and liked everything she liked.That set a pretty good foundation of a great sister-ship. Spending time with her makes me feel bad for anyone who doesn't have a sister. Sisters are incredible blessings. Even though we're so different being sisters has linked us for life.
Luckily, I get to see her in two weeks where I get to see her new house for the first time and I'm excited to help her paint it :)

Here's some highlights:
  • Julie's impeccable Indian accent. Teaching numerous Indian children+her incredible knack for accents=spot on performance
  • Friends bloopers! 
  • Olympic watching
  • Cake batter milkshakes
  • Sister antics (throwing flip flops off the second story deck at the lake house..good one Julie!)
  • Sister brainwaves. Yes we are different in so many ways but we are so alike in so many ways mainly humor and our brilliant timing.
  • Julie distracting me so much I go into the wrong parking lot and leave the root beer at the cash register. 
  • Endless talking
  • Her amazing point of view. She thinks of things I definitely don't.
In case you were wondering if we were always this cute and hilarious...check out this picture.
Much love to my built-in friend :)
