i've told you about kelli, right? she's my older sister. we are three years apart and have always been either best friends or worst enemies, it's never in between. even to this day. (but it's mostly best friends now that we're older).
kelli and i got married two weeks apart from each other, and it was the biggest blessing. i got to experience the most important and exciting time of my life at the same time as my sister, and now, we will always have someone who understands exactly what we are going through! the older we've gotten, the closer we've become, but i still look up to kelli so much. she if the kind of person that sets goals and actually accomplishes them. ever since she was a young teenager, she knew she wanted to be a choir teacher, and now she teaches at a charter school. she always wanted to live in northern utah, and this last year, her and her husband bought a beautiful home in ogden. she decided she wanted to run a marathon, so she did. she's absolutely amazing and so motivated.
i truly don't understand how girls get through life without sisters, because she keeps me sane! sisters are best friends that tell you the truth, even when it's not what you want to hear. sisters are honest with you, even if it means telling you bad news. as far as people who know me best? #1: my husband #2: my sisters. i have spent many a late night with this lady, and shared many laughs, tears, fights and words of advice. she's the greatest older sister a person could ever ask for, and this post is getting way too sappy, so i'm gonna stop.
this photo was taken about a week before kelli's wedding, and three weeks before mine. i drove up to her house in layton and we had a "last hurrah" together, finishing up some wedding plans, relaxing, venting, and talking for hours. i love ya cheech! i hope you had the greatest birthday!
(have you caught on by now that my sisters and i call each other that? cheech? it's a weird story... for another time...)
