sisters

There is only ONE day left until 2011 begins.

I will make DAILY CHALLENGE goals.

I will attempt my year at NO SHOPPING.

I will cherish EVERY day.  Happy or Not.

I will live EACH day.  To the fullest.

I will SMILE.

What are your resolutions?

Or

Your daily challenges?

Be.Thankful. {day thirteen}

I am thankful for SISTERS.

Soul Sisters.

Sisters-in-law.

Best Friend Sisters.

Friends.

Old Friends.

New Friends.

Gold Friends.

  "Make new friends,

but keep the old,

some are silver and the other are gold!"

recaps of the last six weeks

10.  The "Lasts"
 
Documenting 2010 with the "last" photo taken of only two sisters.  The "last" time that there are only TWO girls.  Victoria and Petra together. 

From this day forward, there will be three sisters. 

Sneak Peek

Big Sister, Victoria, has created a "Minnie Mouse" Birthday Party for her little sister.  She could not find what she was looking for in the stores or on-line... so she designed the items that she wanted.  So with a little help from mom and the craft junk-drawer... she was able to create prototypes for her imaginative designs.  Little Sister, "P", is one lucky little girl!!

T-shirts embellished with Minnie Ears and Bows

Handmade Minnie Mouse Invitations

"We got EARS -- It's time for CHEERS"

I love traveling to predominantly Catholic countries and seeing nuns. They are so cute, so souvenir-like. They must dislike having their photos taken, hence the nuns' flipside shot as they cursed me in Polish (I'm sure it was a curse... my God-given talent is being able to cuss in any given language). I think I'll go watch 'Sister Act', or perhaps 'Sound of Music'...
