What a beautiful group of girls! Kind of funny how WE’s only sister starts her name with an ‘A’ too! This must be meant to be.

I can’t imagine you beautiful girls “cat-fighting”. I always thought you were all the “perfect” siblings”. hehe

Hey don’t forget the M! Really a lovely picture and special comments. I’m just wondering now that I’ve got all the B’s I didn’t get to grow up with (but knew I’d get eventually as all the A’s got married), how I’m ever going to have time to get to know them. We’re destined to live in CA after we’ve done our time in whatever oil-producing armpit we’re lucky enough to get sent to in the world. Hmmm, I think Mom just needs to grow the dress business big enough to hire all of us. You said you’d train a bunch of crazy nuts right?

Thanks A2. I love this picture! I too am so grateful for the relationships we all have with one another. I too am missing all of you and am still wondering with A3 what happened to the whole Colorado migration? As for Texas..we have one single reason for not living there I think most of us know what that is. But maybe we will make our way atleast a little closer like New Mexico or something! I’ve learned throughout the past several years that even when we think we have a plan for ourselves or think we have it all planned out, it doesnt matter because the Lord probably has a different plan for us anyways. Texas may not be in the plan right now but we will see. Love you all A1,A2,and A3!

There seems to be a coded message in there. I am in tune. I hear you. Like Horton heard the Who.

AWWWW…I LOVE THIS PICTURE!!!
partially because we are all so beautiful…
partially because we are all together at the temple, which is so beautiful…
partially because it was my wedding day…
and mostly because I love and admire each of you so much!!!
I second what A2 said… I’m so happy that A2 and I don’t hit and scratch each other anymore…
And I remember having the same experiences on the mission too…
Now about this Texas migration thing…What ever happened to the good old Colorado migration?!?!
That seems a little more feesible for us people “up north” here…I don’t know if I’ll ever get Micah down to “hot and sticky” Texas…You better start praying hard now…
No really we’ll end up whereever the Lord needs us, if it be Utah all our lives, let it be…if it be Texas, bring it on…if it be China, shoot let the doors open…We are excited to see what te future brings…there have been little “inklings” of change goin on in both our lives lately…and we don’t know what but, it’ll come soon enough…:) Love you all! And we will always be in touch from whereever it may be…

Mom, you’re not the only one shedding some tears…

Being A1 and a little bit older than the other A’s (4 years older than A2), I didn’t feel as close a bond growing up. But I definitely feel a stronger bond now. It’s been fun for me to watch my little sisters grow and change, and I appreciate the unique qualities that each of us has.

I’d say the spouses are pretty different also and reflect well our own personality differences. I’ve been missing everyone as well and trying to figure out how to get closer to family. It’s interesting how some people can just live their own lives and not really care about living close to family and others of us thrive on it. I keep trying to get back to Texas, but can’t talk Alex into it yet. (Seems natural to me with his research area being the Texas coast.) We’ll see what happens.

Beautiful.

Having grown up with (essentially) all boys, it is fun to experience the inter-sister relationships in your family.

I think most normal families experience the sibling discord while growing up, but it is a real treat if those siblings later learn what a blessing they are to each other after they have become adults. That’s at least what happened in my family too.

Also – I’m all for the Texan migration. Let’s make it happen! Especially since we’ll be staying here for the foreseeable future, and we’ll need nephews and cousins close!
