I Am Officially Attended

I recently turned thirty (which I was actually excited about!) Two of my sisters decided to surprise me by flying to Chicago for the weekend! Seeing them was really a wonderful present. One sister is a student in Boston, and the other lives in Dallas, so they hadn't seen each other in a long time either.

We went for burgers and shopping and tea and crafty-ogling. My sisters flying in also gave me the wonderful opportunity of being able to ask them to be my Matron and Maid of Honor in person! I thought I was going to have to call them, which is not nearly as special!

My family are all big pack-rats. If anything special happens, we ALWAYS keep a memento. Our Dad actually has a whole bookshelf full of little gifts we have given him, old tickets, programs, model airplanes... he calls it his Treasure. SO, I definitely wanted to give them both a little something to remember the moment by (not that this is a huge life moment by any means, but it is special enough for a lil card.) :) You see the front of the card above and then I included a poem on the back about sisters:



Totally cheesytown, but I was feelin' cheesy, so the poem was appropriate. :) I am very lucky to have such wonderful sisters.
