Flashback Friday: me & my sister

This picture is from Christmas Day 2009. Me on the left, my younger sister Jenny on the right. Me, my hubby and son drove up to Alabama for Christmas. I had written about it here. It was my first time being out of Florida for a Christmas since moving to Florida as a toddler. It's just us two kids in the family. Two girls, I am 21 months older. I am also a lot taller! hehe My mom and sister are both...short. (shhh!)

I picked this photo because my sister is nice! Anyone remember last week when I mentioned things I wanted to buy?? One of them was this adorable magnet:
So two days ago my husband brings in the mail and says there is something here for you from such and such. I said, hmm that's weird, I didn't order anything from that place. So I open it and the magnet is in there! Along with some freebies. But no note. But then I figured it had to be sent by a family member or really close friend because they all call me Stina (instead of Christina) and it was addressed to Stina. I called my mom and found out that my lovely sister saw my blog post and wanted to surprise order it for me. Now isn't that sweet? :) Thank you Jenny!!

Aren't sisters awesome? Well, most of the time anyway :) As an adult, my sister is awesome more than she's not, unlike when we were younger! You guys definitely look alike, even though she is shorter. I wish I was the tall one...but alas, I only got the big feet!

Oh look at how cute you two are! You look so much alike! I'm an only child, so the sibling world completely escapes me. I have such a hard time with my kids sometimes, because I don't know which one I should be diciplining or who to give the benefit of the doubt.

My little sister and I are about 2 years apart, but she's taller than I am.
I've always been envious of that, but I make sure to stand on my toes in photos so that I don't notice the difference when looking back on pictures, ;)
