Tiffany

 Last week my little sister Tiffany turned 21! I can't believe it.. Its amazing to think how fast we all grow up.. It feels like yesterday I was sitting in her crib playing with her as if she were my baby doll. I just adored her from the start! I'm so thankful for her and the lifelong friend God gave me.. Tiffany is so beautiful inside and out! I'm just so proud of her and the choices she makes.. Tiffany is the kind of girl who thinks before she does something. Its a gift that many can learn from. She has a heart for people and meaningful friendships. She is sensitive, loving, funny, compassionate, giving and trustworthy! and these are just a few.. I could go on. seriously though, Its been amazing to watch her grow up.. And I'm so incredibly blessed that she is my sister.
One of the reasons Tiffany is so special to me is because there was a time when it was just us. We moved to Utah when Tiffany was 10 and I was 15. we lived there for 8 yrs. and five of them she was the only other sister In the house with me. for those were very pivotal years for both of us, we needed each other. there was so much transition living in a completely foreign environment, changing schools, and making new friends. .
Also, moving to utah was the first time we had ever seen snow!! It was so exciting, like we were in the movies or something.. haha.. We just had to soak it all in. thats what you get for growing up in florida during the winter :) we were deprived of white Christmas's.. My dad tried his best by giving us instant snow. but thats just not the same. haha. So we embraced it all!

 
One thing we both enjoy together is snowboarding! Oh how I miss those days!! We had way too much fun on the mountain.. and we were also so spoiled with the rockies literally in our back yard. It was so beautiful! and am glad we got to enjoy it together.. Love you sis!
