Many of you know the twins, and so will enjoy these photos.
This one's Melissa, Jarom, and Melanie...they're about 2 here I think.
This is a good multi-generation photo of my Grandma, my Mom, me, and the twins. Miss is on my Grandma's lap, Mel's on my Mom's.
Look at these cute little 4-year-olds(?)... Didn't we love those 80's bangs? They were way cuter on you two than they ever were on me. Mel on the left, Miss on the right.
About 2nd grade now. Their primary teacher used the gaps in their teeth to tell them apart, because for a minute Mel was "One Space", and Miss was "Two Space".
This was either 8th or 9th grade right?...
In high school they were the "Twin Terrors", EV's cross country champs. At the same time my brother John was WV's cross country champ. So this picture was taken by a newspaper reporter after a match they were all at.
Senior pictures...
It's crazy to think back on all my memories growing up with the twins. They were fun little girls, and used to let me dress them up and do their hair...they used to follow me around and liked to do things like sit in my room just to watch me while I cleaned. We lived together for a while as single young adults, those are by far some of our best and worst memories of each other, LOL...I'm sure I was the worst. They are some of my best examples and closest friends. I learn from them and gain insight from them now as we are all mothers trying to raise a handful of 9 little boys between us who are all close in age. I love to spend time with them, and including Emily, the four of us goof off together as only siblings can do, and of course bug each other once in a while, but I feel so blessed to have them in my life.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MELANIE & MELISSA!! I hope your day is truly wonderful. Thanks for always loving me (even through the stupid fights, like the time we were roommates and I got so mad I threw my flip-flops at you Melissa...lol :)

That was really nice Steph. And I know you don't have all the time in the world to do this sort of thing, so thanks for taking time to put this together. Its fun to look back and recall the memories associated with each picture. And I cherish the memories, good and not so fun, that we share over the years. Thanks for always being there for me. Love you Steph.
