Over the weekend, my cousin Erica got engaged. I am so excited for her and her fiance Matt. Her ring is beautiful and it was a lovely engagement story.
I have to tell you that I have 2 sisters and 5 cousins that are also like sisters. We are all very close and would do anything for each other.
When I was little, Erica lived one street over from my house. It was perfect. We are 21 months apart in age and loved playing together when we were little. If I got upset about something, I always told my mom that I was going to run away to Erica's house. :)
When my parents and I moved to Nashville the summer after I finished first grade, I cried and cried because I missed Erica.
One night we had to drive to Monteagle Mountain (half way between Cleveland, TN and Nashvillle, TN) just so I could see her.
Erica is beautiful, hard-working, smart, funny, and list goes on. She is a fabulous daughter, sister, cousin, and friend.
Erica,
I hope you enjoy your time of engagement. Treasure all of the sweet moments that exist somewhere between dating and marriage. What a sweet time.
I am so excited for Matt to join our family!
Congratulations Erica!!
Now...let's take a walk down memory lane...
Cousins love to read together!
Silly faces before bed!
Hmm...I sure hope our fashion sense has gotten better with age!
Christmas at Mamaw's house!
Everyone loves Mickey!
Beware...turtlenecks and stone washed jeans! Yikes!
