Meet Katie.

My little sister.  She she graduated from Nursing School at OU (Boomer Sooner) and just got her first job as a nurse.  She's all grown up now and I cannot believe how fast time flies.

I remember wanting to stay out past my curfew in high school (my sister was two years younger at the time) and calling my sister to ask her if she'd turn off the lamp outside my parents bedroom. My parents used to turn on this tiny lamp outside their room and would wake up in the middle of the night to see if it was still on to judge if I was home or not. After a while I figured out if I got my sister to help me then, I'm sure me being 21 before her would come into handy.  Not that I promote under age drinking ;)

Then she was in high school getting serious boyfriends and calling me with all the juicy details and girl drama.

Getting her heart crushed by her serious boyfriend going into college (A**). But rebounding strong and living up her college years like I wish I would have (running college track really just took up a lot of my social life and mistakes I would have otherwise made....).

Going through our parents awful divorce [insert unfaithful father here].  And her being my go to when I would get upset about it and knew she could relate to exactly what I was feeling at those exact moments.

Fast forward to today, with her graduating from nursing school, going on bad dates that she calls to tell me about (fist pounder included), and starting her very first job.

She is ultimately the most amazing sister a girl could ever ask for.  Gorgeous. Smart. Funny Hilarious. Down-to-Earth.  Shy until you get to know her. Lovable.

So without further ado here is my little sister Katie.
