First, I'll introduce Jaimie, my youngest sister. She's a talented singer first and foremost (yes, surprisingly better than I), a good cook, and knows a lot about pop culture (my guess is that she'd be a good pick for any trivia night at a bar). Not only that, but she is also super attractive and extremely kind. She brings out humor in me like no one else and has a contagious smile.
Dawn is good at planning events. I'm going to feel like it's fall until Christmas and probably then still in January. She had spaghetti ready for us on Friday night, pumpkin pancakes Saturday morning, and beef stew Saturday night (and a lot of other snacks and food in between). She talked eight people into going to a corn maze and we competed 4 against 4. Okay, we lost, but it was so awesome. Dawn also had 9 pumpkins ready for carving at her house, and we had a blast carving them! Jaimie's was a monkey, Dawn's was a ghost, Andrea's was a cute kitty, and mine was a guitar.
Andrea is the reason our team lost the corn maze (she was on the opposing team). She's peaking through the corn here, seeing other puzzle pieces and getting young children to hand her puzzle pieces through the corn. Her navigation skills are amazing. I made sure to recount to others the story of her getting us through Dublin, Ireland in one day. I also appreciate that she is certainly a friend that I can cry with, laugh with, and pretty much say whatever I want without losing her respect or friendship. We've been through a lot together. She's my third sister. And, I simply love the fact that she's always up for a trip!
Can't say much more than that! I value these women's perspectives, appreciate their comfort when I'm going through tough times, and couldn't imagine a better family.

awwh, thanks darling! i can't take all the credit. Jason & Jackie are the ones that bargained with kids, took pictures of others' maps & navigated much of it, especially at crunch time. Jaimie was also our partner in American know-how :). it was great to crush y'all though ;).
Andrea!!! I miss our days at Davis. You've always been one cool lady. Makes sense that you're tight with another cool lady like Nicole :)
You and the sisters are soooo cute. And Dawn is sooo skinny!
