Abbey

Dearest Abbey,

Happy Birthday! 29 years old! You've got a new home, a new baby, and a new life in Dallas. What more could a girl ask for? -Maybe a blog entry dedicated solely to you :). I tried to find/scan/upload all of the photos of you that were in my possession. I do need to apologize, though. A lot of the pictures have me or other family members in them. Sorry if it seems like I'm trying to steal the spotlight from you. I'm not!

Even though you are my younger sister, you have far exceeded me in everything! I love you and miss you!

Abbey, when I look at this picture, I remember back to swing dancing and karate chopping 100 feet under water while Pablo was watching us. Creepy and hilarious at the same time!

  1. I can't believe you put the homecoming picture on here. How embarrassing!

    I'm so glad I got over the grumpy phase.

    Thanks for dedicating a blog entry to me. You are the sweetest.

  2. I had to include the homecoming photos! They were too funny. Jess still makes fun of me for the homecoming clown makeup!
