When you're the best of friends..

Alright, so pretty much I have the most incredible sister in the universe. She is the epitome of kindness and cuteness, and she is unfailingly unselfish. I don't know very many people who have been through things as crazy and hard as she has, and they happened during high school- which is in my opinion hard enough by itself. Despite everything, she's come out even sweeter. She lives to help the people she cares about, and she finds joy in the smallest things. She's super talented, super beautiful, faithful, and awesome. Having her in the same room as me = having a major party. She helps to remind me what is really important in life, all the while making me feel better about myself and the world. I cannot imagine life without her in it, and I am so grateful for the wonderful friend she's been to me.

Next week she is coming to be my ROOMMATE! We haven't lived in the same room for almost 13 years, and I am so excited!! So many times people have asked me if we ever fight, or how we get along so well. Honestly I don't know how I'd ever get along without her. When we were kids we looked forward to having people stay over at our house, because it meant I had to give up my room, and the 2 of us would have a sleepover.  I cannot wait to see what havoc we create over a 2 month sleepover!

Here's some adventures we've had in the last couple weeks-

She defeated high school!

Silly graduation present I made her..

To welcome summer, the 2 of us celebrated alien appreciation week. This was accomplished by a slew of alien related movies, music, and crafts. Aak aak!

Earlier this week she was even willing to go on an enchanted hiking adventure with me!

Oh yeah, and we got some hot dino tattoos..

...and massive snowcone awesomeness.

 Isn't she adorable??

Here are some more nostalgic ones just because..

When I count my blessings, I count her over and over, and thank a loving Heavenly Father for giving her to me and our family. Thanks Colee for being the best sister and best friend that could ever be dreamed up in all the world.
