Seester!

This last weekend my sister Kristi came to visit.

(Below: Kristi at the Chowder Bowl- the best chowder in Newport!)

Isn't she beautiful?!!!

Here is why having a sister around is so great:

1. They may bring you CLOTHES! Oh-yeah, hand-me-ups galore! Plus, a few gifts. You are the BEST! Thank you so much for my new duds. 2. Bike riding in the rain. 3. They can help you with your make-up and teach you how to do "wings"- cuz they are pretty sexy. 4. Baking- cooking and goodies galore! 5. Girl talk! And straight talk. They'll let you know if you are annoying. 6. Hair tips, and the best hair products. 7. LATE nights. 8. LAUGHTER!

I always liked the number 8, so I'll stop there. But seriously- I had a great time with Kris- we all did. I'm too lazy to plug in my camera and download the few pictures that I took, so here are some photos that are compliments of Kaitlin. She is always great at taking pictures and documenting what we are up to!

Sisters are truly the best. I miss you Kristi. I miss you Jeni! Jeni- you should move back, and Kristi, you should just move here! It would make borrowing clothes and stuff so much easier. :)

Night Glow

Every year, Albany hosts an Art & Air Festival. Last year I posted pictures of the balloon launch early in the morning. This year, we were way more interested in checking out the night glow. These big bright and colorful balloons are so beautiful to look at.

Especially when they are glowing at night.
