Happy Birthday, Asia! I love this picture of Asia and Andrew that we took when we were living in Austin. I hope you have a wonderful year, Asia, it should be an eventful one! I miss you and wish we lived closer together and could see each other more often. I am grateful that you are my sister and my friend. I am still waiting to hear from Ben about our spa trip! :)
Memories of Asia:
1. Asia used to say she was older than me because her birthday is four days before mine, only I was born three years before. :)
2. When my family was living in Germany, we starting calling her Little Miss Sunshine, hoping it might wear off on her attitude.
3. She went to a dance in Heidelberg castle. Isn't that romantic?
4. She cooked for her own wedding reception.
5. She once etched my name in the window sill with a screwdriver, hoping I would be the one to get in trouble for it.
6. She studied Art at Texas Tech.
7. She is the only one of us kids that didn't go to BYU.
8. She has beautiful blond hair and blue eyes.
9. She is so fun.
10. She took care of my boys when I was in the hospital after Michael was born.
11. She is very generous - my boys love getting presents from her.
12. She loves my boys.
13. When I was a senior and she was a freshman, it was fun to have her in Drama with me.
14. She is a great scrapbooker, I love the pages she has done for me.
15. I love going shopping with her.
16. She was born in Singapore and will maybe have her baby in a foreign country, too.
17. She made and decorated my wedding cake - it was chocolate.
18. When we were in Europe, we (mostly me) had eaten so much chocolate and I made her exercise with me, doing lunges, etc in the hotel hallways. We tried to look inconspicuous every time we saw someone.
19. I made her go on a date with me once when she was visiting me in Utah, my date (the guy) wasn't too thrilled. But, she made it so much better for me!
20. She has a beautiful daughter.
21. She has visited me everywhere I have lived, except for Arizona. What's the deal, As?
22. She helped me go buy a pregnancy test when I thought I was pregnant with Jacob. ( I was )
23. She is so brave to drive across the country all by herself to see her husband before he left for Iraq.
24. She has always been one of my best friends.
25. She used to bite me as a kid.
26. She used to share a bedroom with me and once we doing running somersaults onto the bed and we put a hole in the wall.
Happy 26th birthday!

I loved this! What a wonderful tribute
Look its Asia without makeup! We had fun that day though. I love that sweet little boy. He is my favorite little boy out there. Your right I LOVE your boys, I love the rowdiness, the sweetness, the sudden bursts of energy, their amazing intelligence. It so funny to me I think both Andrew and Jacob are two very smart little boys but in different ways they amaze me and any time you want to give them away give me a call.I'm excited to one day bond with my beautiful Micheal too! You know I'd take all three in a heart beat!I love you all!
