Happy Birthday, Kelly Lauren!

Today is a big day! It's my beautiful sister, Kelly's birthday!

 I know this picture has been used almost every year, but I cannot help it-I love it. As a little girl, I of course loved celebrating my own birthday, but it was so much fun to watch my big sister celebrate her day. I still do!

 Everyone knows how much I love Kelly and I would do anything for her!

She is also a wonderful aunt to Jackson, who loves her very much!

Kelly, I hope you have a very special day. You are amazing and beautiful. Never forget it! Thank you for being you!

Love, Mer

Happy 20th Wedding Anniversary, Kelly and Eric!

My sister is my best friend. I love her so much. We are sisters, though 13 years apart in age, that doesn't stop us from being close! I have been so blessed to know Eric, my brother-in-law, for about 25 years or more. The day they got married was one of the best memories! I was nine years old and so excited to be a junior bridesmaid.

On December 31, 1994, Kelly and Eric said, "I Do." From the hunter green taffeta bridesmaids dresses, the gorgeous white poinsettias, the old world babysbreath accents, everything was perfect!

So wonderful!

Still laughing, even twenty years later!

The journey continues!

They now have two teenagers, Logan and Lauren, who are the best ever!

We all love you, Kelly and Eric! Celebrate big!

Happy 20 years!

Love,

Meredith

Here is the bible verse that was read at your wedding and on your wedding program. Such a wonderful verse!

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6

Happy Birthday, Kelly!

Oh, how I love, love LOVE my sweet sister, Kelly.

I just love celebrating her so much.

When I was little, I called her "iyie" and "sissy." Today, I call her my very best friend and one I will always look up to. Today is her birthday, of course!

Here we are at the lake with our cousins! I think this picture was in 2004, but I am not sure.

Kelly and her precious family at her most favorite place in the world-the beach!

Here we are at a baby shower for Jackson this March.

And, last but not least-"Aunt Kelly" and Jackson meeting for the first time.

I am beyond blessed to have Kelly Lauren as my sister. I cannot say it enough, but she's the best ever and I love her SO much!

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6

Kelly's Birthday

Today is my sister, Kelly's birthday! I always love celebrating her birthday. I get way too excited about it, but I can't help it! :)

 So sweet!

 Kelly with Mama and Daddy!

 

Ever since I can remember, I have looked up to my sister. From how she put makeup on, to how she dressed so pretty, all kinds of little things. I specifically remember sitting beside her in church one Sunday, and I tried to sing JUST like her. I loved her beautiful singing voice, and still do. She has always, always been there for me. In my opinion, she is the epitome of what and how a sister should be. I can go on and on. I only hope that I have shown her even half the love and grace that she has shown to me. I love her so much.

Happy Birthday, Kelly! I hope you have a fabulous day!

Love, Mer
