Things I don't want to forget:

-The time that we played in the ocean and kept saying "diversion" like we were from England

-The time that she drove me to school blaring Michelle Branch

-The time that I was sick and she made me food and let me crash at her house (and she gave me some medicine)

-The time that we ran away from the Smith's house

-The time that we use to go down to the firestation and get cokes

-The time that she slapped me 

-The time that she sent me a fax, conning it off as the girl that I liked (subsequently I called her and asked this girl out... she said no.)

-The many times that she told me I smelled like "b.o"

-The time that I went to the first Auburn game with her

-The many times that she's called me a whore/slut

-The time that we played games at her house with all of my friends the summer before my freshman year

-The time that I saw her after the birth of Nate

-The times that I HAD to go to her gymnastics meets

-The time that I called her crying in high school

-The time that we went bowling with all of her friends from high school

-The time that I saw her when she had poison ivy on her eye

-The endless nights when I was younger when she would play her dance routine music (all night long)

-The times that she asked me if she could pop my "imperfections"

-The time that I found out that she was pregnant with Nate, and denying it because I thought she was lying

-The time that we went to Dave and Busters for her birthday on New Years day

-The time that she helped me set up my race-car track

-The many Christmas mornings we would wake up together and go downstairs and open our stocking presents

-The time that she got in a wreck in Hot Springs Village

-The time that when I was 15 and a freshman and she was 16 and a senior in high school

-The many times that she was on crutches

-Her first impression of Charlotte

-The time that she told me she hated eating with the family, because the time it took for us to get the check and us leaving, takes FOREVER!

-That time that we went to that lake and sat in the car and listened to the Lifehouse cd with her friend Audrey

She is my wonderful sister. She is very blunt. She'll tell you how it is. She thinks very reasonably. She is stubborn. She is very different than the average sister. She has a huge heart for her family and kids. She is a great cook (though she'll just tell you that she gets most of her recipe's online... which is probably true). She sings very well. She has a Martin guitar that I use all the time. She loves the Lord. She's honest. She's my sister. Her name is Ivey.
