Sibling Love

I may be a wee bit biased, but I will stand by my opinion that I have the GREATEST siblings in the entire world. And here is why.

Last night, the three "big babies" (Jay, Mitch, and myself) could not fall asleep for the life of us! It was so irritating! So, it's like two in the morning and we're all just wandering about our house wondering what the heck to do with ourselves. We all got together and I decided that I absolutely had to have french fries and ice cream. Like that very instant. So, you know, we just get in our car and we go to Walmart.

Has anyone ever been to Walmart at 2 am? It's so freaking great. There is not a soul there except the poor workers. Everything is quiet and not crowded. Glorious, really. If you ever need to go to Walmart, I would strongly suggest going in the middle of the night; I promise it will lead to a much more peaceful grocery shopping experience.

So we pick out our ice cream, and Jay's all, "I need peach cobbler." So we have to find the ingredients for that. And Mitchell bets that I can't hit a sign with my head. (For the record, he was right. I got NO hops. Sadly.) Looking back on it this morning, I figured that all of the workers thought we were probably drunk or high. Alas, 'twas not so!

Then, we went to McDonald's so I could get some fries. On the drive over there, a cat ran in front of my car. I moved to make sure I wouldn't hit it, but Jay let out a scream that killed all of our ear drums and gave me a dang heart attack. Seriously. You should have felt how fast/hard my heart was beating, it was only slightly ridiculous. The good news is, I did not hit the cat! So, huzzah!

Then when we got home and Stace was awake. Holy buckets, if looks could kill, man, if looks could kill. She was so mad at us.

Anyway, Mitchell went to bed after he ate his fries. Jay and I, however, stayed up to watch a movie. And we watched the stupidest movie from our childhood. So ridiculous. Then, I left Jay, because she was starting to fall asleep.

So I went into my room to watch How I Met Your Mother, and it was glorious.

Anyway, you can sort of tell how great of a time we had. But, you should have seen all the smiles and heard all of the laughter. I have the greatest siblings in the world, and I feel so blessed to have such amazing people in my life. I hope everyone can take the time to think about all of the people they are grateful for that are normally taken for granted.
