This is my aunt Suzanne. My mom's little sister.Some people say that we look alike, which I have always taken as a compliment.
I have grown up wanting to be like her. As little girl I remember wishing that my hair was like hers and that I could drive a stick like she did ( I can still hear the click of her fingernails as she shifted and I liked that too). I remember her purple and white wedding bouquet and staying the night with her and eating oatmeal cookie dough.
We tease that we were supposed to be sisters.
It's funny now how we have things in common that I couldn't have planned. We both want our homes to feel like a beach cottage even thought she is in the mountains and I'm a good drive away myself. We both feel funner when our hair is short.
I love Suzanne.
I few weeks ago I took the boys up to Crestline to spend the day with her. We had so much fun walking around the lake and feeding the ducks. We had a picnic and played at the park. And completely wore the kids out. She even made special cookies that Corbin could eat. It was a beautiful day and Corbin still talks about going to the mountains to see Suzanne.
Thanks Suzanne for taking the day off of your life to play with us. It is so extra special to me that Corbin and Cooper get to love you too. They are lucky little boys.
