a fun announcement

Every now and then, I meet someone who reads my blog and also reads The Nester’s blog but doesn’t know we’re sisters. Just a few weeks ago, she and I were together chatting with someone who reads both of us and one of us said ‘my sister’ and she flipped. out. Didn’t know we were sisters. Good times.

There’s something really magical about having a sister. Here you are, a grown up person, but there is this other grown up person who knew you when you were a little person. And she has the same parents! It’s like, she’s kind of me. But not. I’m friends with myself. Except so much better. Because I would get on my own nerves, but she? Is fantastic. And supportive. And hilarious. And thinks I’m funny even when I am not.

You know the best part about writing a book? Having a sister who is excited that you wrote a book. And so she’s hosting a party to prove it. Go on over to her place for the preliminary details. And if you live within a reasonable distance to Charlotte, save the date and I hope to see you there!

  1. I. Love. That. Picture.

    I want to come. But probably can’t. I’ll be there in my heart. Cannot wait to read your book! I am stalking my mailman ;)

  2. That would be SO amazing! Hoping it might. Just. Work. Out. ;-)

  3. What a beautiful picture of the two of you!! Will see you both in September!

  4. What a GREAT picture! My sisters are amazing people and dear friends as well.

  5. I also read The Nester’s blog and at some point, discovered that you were sisters. But, a couple of weeks ago, I realized that I also read your Dad’s blog! Yes, I had a mild flip-out. I mean seriously, what are the chances of coming across all three of your blogs?

    I’m very glad each of you is blogging. I enjoy every post!

  6. I love you both.

  7. You described sisters so well. You can just feel the excitement in the Nester’s announcement. So sweet. I hope to be able to make it to Charlotte to meet you both in person.

  8. Aww….I love this! I look forward to more opportunities like this with my sister and I as well!!

  9. So excited! Can’t wait to see you both.

  10. Great picture! I’d love to come but I’m on the opposite coast. I’ll be there in my heart, though. Can’t wait to read your new book. Congratulations, that is quite an accomplishment! Have a great time celebrating!

  11. There’s nothing quite like having a sister! She’s one of my very bestest friends, too!
    Congrats on the book!

  12. i wish. would love to hang out with the cool sisters.

  13. Ahhhh…a friend who is a sister who is a friend. A blessing indeed.

  14. Such beautiful ladies you both are. And so fortunate to have one another! I only have 2 older brothers that I very rarely speak too. I do hope my own daughters grow up to appreciate the relationship they have. So far they get along very well, but are total opposites.

    Wishing you a fabulous party!

  15. It is beauty to witness the love and support you have for each other. Can’t wait!!

  16. Ah I know what you mean about Sisters! I love the excitement your sister has for you. My twin sister is being induced tonight to have her 1st baby! The excitement that I feel for her definitely equals the excitement I felt with the birth of my 2 children. I’m just a few hours away from Charlotte. I may have to look into a road trip!

    Congrats ~ Mary

  17. Awww, love seeing you two sweet thangs. Since my own sister introduced me to you two, I doubly love you both!

  18. That’s a wonderful picture, and you summed up sisterhood so well! :) I’m excited for your book!

  19. sisters rock!

  20. Hilarious, I think we all sorta head-tilted when we discovered your relationship :)

    Sisters are grand indeed… who else would make you feel rational about irrational things?

  21. Hearing that sister laugh at your charm and your jokes at SS was like sugar on a peach.

  22. How adorable are the two of you??

  23. Aww! I didn’t know you were sisters either!

  24. Let’s see, Orlando is a reasonable distance, right? How fun, I hear she throws a great party. Be sure to breathe and don’t hide, since it is for you!!!!

  25. this may be the best description of sisters i have ever read. so much so that i quoted you on my facebook status. excited for your book! for some reason i thought it came out later in september and a friend and i were talking about it and i said, well, let me look it up, and she was excited when she found out i was wrong. she had hoped sooner rather than later. :) blessings to you and your sis.

  26. You two are darling!! I really wish I was near Charlotte! Have a Blast!

  27. THIS CRACKED ME UP!!! I love you two! And so, so, so excited about the impact this book will have on so many
    ! :)

  28. I’m guessing you’re referring to when Mary Kathryn found out about you and Nester. Because that was one hilarious, fantastic moment!

  29. yes! sisters are the BEST! absolutely love this picture & both of your blogs :) can’t wait for your book release!

  30. That is sooooo neato, can’t wait to read it!

    blessings,

  31. said perfectly.
    sisters are pure awesomeness.

    wish I lived close enough to come to your party at your sister’s. :(

  32. so fun!

    i never had a sister {4 brothers!} but having girls now myself i dream of this for them~

    and so excited about the book. funny, i don’t even “know” you and yet i feel nervous and excited and even weird and teary eyed for you all at the same time – it’s been neat walking this journey with you. thanks for taking us along.

  33. Love the love between you two sisters! Refreshing to see this kind of support for one another.

    God Bless You and Congratulations on the book!

  34. That’s too funny. I just started reading both y’all’s blogs – had no idea you were sisters.

    Well, congrats! PS – you have the best name in the world. ;)

  35. Wish I lived close enough. That’s one of my favorite things about both of you — how you love each other.

  36. Sisters are one of God’s best gifts. I’m so thankful for mine!

    Congrats on the book! I pre-ordered from B&N and can’t wait to get it. :)
