Sisters....

More of the family photos I dragged home from my "vacation"...

This is me and my big sister, Esther....

There's an 8 1/2 year difference between us and that made for very little sisterly bonding when we were younger. By the time I was beyond carrying around and having my diaper changed, she was a mature "young adult" with her own life.

All that has changed now that we are grown up (AGAIN, those words!) and have families of our own. I can truly say I am very lucky to have my sister in my life. She rocks!

She's also a very talented jewelry maker, and if I had any pictures of her pieces I would post them. She does the coolest things with wire and stones! Not sure that she has updated this lately, but take a look at her website ....
