Sisters Weekend (All By Myself: Day 16)

My sisters and I went this weekend to my friends farm house in Round Top. We have never gone away just the four of us before and are already looking forward to doing it again (when it is not so hot!). It is very rare to get all four of us together (and even more rare for us not to argue a lot, which we didn't!).



Across from the farm was a llama family in the pasture across the street which the girls really thought was intriging. They got out of the car to take pictures and Kirsten figured out how to officially call a llama. You have to make her do the sound for you, its really funny. She started doing the "call" and the llama family, which they named Tina (appropriatly), Fred, and a couple of other names which I forgot, came running to the fence.




We went into town one afternoon and visited the cute shops including this fancy sleep store with $350 giant pillows. The manager was super nice and asked us if she could "put us to bed". We obliged and she laid Kat and Halie in these beds and strategically placed the special pillows on them. Kirsten and I sat on a day bed where she placed giant pillows in our laps. VERY relaxing. She gaves us instructions for the best nights sleep and answered some of our very pressing slumber questions. We were in there for a good half hour "resting".





On our way back home we saw some very enticing bales of hay and stopped to take pictures. We laughed a lot, especially when Kirsten tumbled off the bail of hay and we just stood there and watched like the good sisters were are... laughing.







I love each of my beautiful sisters for different reasons. They are each unique. Kirsten is the perfect girl and we give her crap for it all the time. She seems to be good at everything and has the best personality and a great head on her shoulders. I tease that I want to be just like her when I grow up.

Katherine has the best sense of humor and always keeps you laughing. She loves people and sees and appreciates things in people that others may not. She is kind and loyal, adverterous, and up for anything. I admire this quality in her sometimes because I am NOT adverterous and I know it has probably prevented me from experiencing some great things in life. She also taught me how to make Passion Ice Tea Lemonade from Starbucks which I am forever grateful for!

Halie is such a hard worker and VERY passionate (especially about the villian in movies). She loves people and focuses on the best in those she loves. She is very nurturing and never judgemental. Each of them inspire me in different ways and I would do anything for them.

The Taylor Swift sing-a-long, our mutual love of Hugh Jackman and Chocolate Extreme ice cream, the hay in very weird places, and llama calls is something I will cherish for a very long time.....Bailey enjoyed the trip to the farm too.
