I feel some serious pressure to write something amazing because of our talk last night and because of your comment on my blog (thank you for that; perfect thing to wake up to!). This is what is in my heart: #1 I will always be jealous of your curly hair. #2 Of course there is a comment about bread! #3 You are the GREATEST sister I have ever seen, you're brothers are so LUCKY to have you! #4 Sorry all we do is talk on the phone, didn't even know you didn't like it. #5 Yahoo for dads! #6 Comments like this just crack me up because I know how much you honestly hate it. #7 You and Grant are the perfect balance is SOOO many ways it is incredible to watch! #8 You are so talented. I think everyone in the world should know you play 3 instruments, even if you don't like saying it. Come on THREE is a lot!! #9 Along with the music this is so awesome. Another one of your hidden talents. You are way further along then most people. #10 Amen sister! #11 Still have not seen this, we should watch it together. #12 You rock at cooking. Thank you for letting me eat so much of your food. #13 That made perfect sense and I threw up a little. #14 Everyone should note: it's not cold water she likes, it's ICE cold water. #15 We have such similar taste. She is my favorite. Have you seen Death Becomes Her? We have to watch that. Maybe after Kunfu Panda?! #16 THIS IS JUST ANOTHER REASON WHY YOU ARE MY BEST FRIEND!! I can't wait to see him this summer. I want to kiss him so badly! When we are old and retired we should work at Sea World! #17 Again love this comment because I can see your face while you were writing it, just so ticked off. #18 I love the Jones Family. That is the best tradition. I love going downstairs and seeing your family all cuddled up on the couch...even a Grandma or two! #19 YES YOU ARE! THAT IS WHAT I LOVE ABOUT YOU! *never ever change* #20 I can see why this would be the perfect thing for you and the worst thing for you. Perfect because you would be so happy. Worst because you love your hair and make-up and clothes and modern conveniences. #21 Ditto. Especially when I'm with you cause you find the best things. #22 Ditto again. Please don't let me end up in Utah! #23 Where would we be without the church? #24 HAHAHA!! So true! Just think of the bread, cake, wind, cold comments! #25 Your kids are going to be the dang cutest things around. Just know that you will probably be dressing my children too.
I'm adding a #26 Britt Barnes is the best friend a girl could ask for!
This comment is way too long. I love this post. I love you!!

This post explains why we made friends quickly.
Um.. I saw a shirt once that said "I love carbs", this was during that whole Atkins craze, I seriously considered buying it. I LoVe bread. And that is only the least of what we have in common.
