Happy Birthday Sissies

Kelley and Stacey in High School


Happy 33rd birthday Stacey and Happy 31st birthday Kelley!! Stacey and Kelley's birthdays are a week apart so I thought I would do a little vintage photo homage to both of them. As I am constantly accused by Kelley that I post "fugly" pictures of her on my blog I have included a few "fugly" pictures of my own for her amusement. Consider it a birthday gift Kelley!! ;) To get some truly "vintage" pictures I really needed to raid my mom's house...next year.



Here we are at our grandparents house in Provo




One of my favorite school pictures of Kelley...she "claims" I have said rude things about all of her school pictures...not true.




Stacey wearing MY Gap sweater...my favorite...I doubt she asked my permission!! ;)




See Kelley...hideous picture of me...nice eyeliner...but Stacey looks cute. Stacey...that is the shirt with the infamous "butter stain".


Stacey, Kristin and Kelley



We have always loved those mall photo booth pictures!!





Stacey's claim to fame...the only cheerleader among us. Big whoop!





Us country dancing...someone short must've taken this picture...our heads are all slightly cut off but we thought we looked HOT!!



The Chambrel Twins...or should I say triplets. We all were waitresses at the same place and no one could ever tell us apart which annoyed us greatly...we did not look alike!!


Another ravishing photo of me...Stacey and Kelley love this picture as they both look very tan and cute...me on the other hand I was in my porker stage and look like I would like to eat both of them for dinner. In my defense Reilly was only a few months old...but still not a good look. Are you happy Kelley? Mom, I'm begging you to put this picture away.
It seems weird not to have Jordi in these pictures...but it isn't her birthday so I will save some oldies but goodies for her birthday in August.

This is our theme song...pretty much one or all four of us break into this song whenever we are together. Here are the words in case you want to sing along!!

Sisters
Sisters
There were never such devoted sisters

Never had to have a chaperone "No, sir"
I'm there to keep my eye on her

Caring
Sharing
Every little thing that we are wearing
When a certain gentleman arrived from Rome
She wore the dress and I stayed home

All kinds of weather
We stick together
The same in the rain or sun
Two diff'rent faces
But in tight places
We think and we act as one

Those who've
Seen us
Know that not a thing could come between us
Many men have tried to split us up but no one can
Lord help the mister
Who comes between me and my sister
And Lord help the sister
Who comes between me and my man


Happy Birthday Stacey and Kelley!! I love you guys!!

Happy Birthday, Stacey and Kelley! I loved seeing all of the vintage pics--brought back so many fun memories!! I especially enjoyed revisiting the "bangs to heaven" in your mall photo booth shots. You girls are all darling and I think that it is so great that you have each other.

Hope this next year brings you much happiness!!

I cannot imagine the horrors your mother has gone through raising such gorgeous daughters. I have always said I hope to have ugly girls. So much less trouble! So far my girls are pretty cute, so I'm just keeping my fingers crossed that puberty will bring some fugliness their direction. I see that your mother had no such luck :)

Happy birthday to your sistas! The walk down memory lane was fabulous. And the bangs--awesome.

I can see why they mixed you up. You all are absolutely gorgeous and really do resemble one another.

And I am laughing at your porker comment--whatever! Two thumbs up for the gap sweater--didn't we all own one of those?

Kelley said...

Ahh thanks!! all school photos are fugly!
I love you very much- thank you for the tribute to your sissy's!

xo- Kelley

Adorable girls! All of you! I hope they had a great birthday. What a fun post about them and your relationship.

Tiffany said...

Oh, now there's the Stacey I knew at the willage. And I recall loving that Gap sweater myself! Happy birthday girls!

Stacey said...

Thanks Kristin! Great pictures! Yes, I loved that Gap sweater of yours!!! Aren't you glad none of us have bangs like that anymore--what were we thinking?? I was always praying that it didn't rain!

XOXOXOOX Stacey
