Another day, more fun stuff ...
Memorable Moment: Sam and I were living in Washington DC for about an year when we decide to have out you get siblings visit. They are they same age. They came up during winter and we took them to the Poconos in Pennsylvania for some winter fun. We all lived in Fl our entire lives. We get to the mountains and have tons of fun. We decide to kick it up a notch and go group tubing. This means we take 4 inner tubes, connect them with ropes and then head down the mountain while sitting or laying in them. Sam and I had our siblings (who were 11 at the time) sit in the tubes and we laid on our stomachs to make sure we were able to see everything that was going on. As soon as we were half way down the mountain the back of my legs and knees slammed into the rock hard ice wall of the mountain as we continued to propel down. Then Sam hit the wall. We eventfully fell off from the amount of times we got battered by the wall and let the siblings continue down. Needless to say they had a good time and Sam and I needed new legs and were black and blue for weeks.
MIP: My older sister who is coming to visit in one week. As most siblings do. We fought like crazy growing up. In fact, I would go as far to say that my sister and I never really got along until I moved from FL to DC. It took me moving for us to work on and grow our relationship.
But, the past 8 years have been the best. She is so supportive of me and my moves and endeavors. She comes to visit and brings the girls (my nieces) because she knows how much it means. She is also a wonderful mother to her girls. She has raised them to be beautiful, amazing little ladies so far and they have so many years to go. (Did I mention she does it on her own). I'm also VERY proud of her latest accomplishment, she has lost just over 50lbs as of this month!! She is getting fit and healthy for herself and her girls and I couldn't be more proud of her!! 😍🤗😘
