One more Airplane Ride

I know my brothers and I went through many a babysitter when we were kids; some toughed it out while others never came back. Some of my greatest memories of you are when I was a child. Sara, Thank You; for the countless hours you spent laying on the floor with you feet in the air, while we would take turn after turn on your "airplane rides", For introducing me to Greenday Dookie and I'm too Sexy! For taking me skiiing and showing me the way down, and too stop by falling over! I still remember that day you told Katy, Jami and myself to stay on that one run! and how mad you were when we passed you under the lift a few runs over. That day was my first true introduction to skiing, you made it look so easy. Sara you may have thought your shorter thumb was a disadvantage, but if I do recall, that thumb won you many a thumb war!

Sara, you will always be my cousin that works for Microsoft, my encouragement to move out west, and that little angel on my shoulder that tells me to live for the moment! (go on... buy those expensive toys... you need them!)

The 31st of Oct is a day filled with candy, costumes, and great parties; On this day of Hallows Eve, I raise my glass - "To chasing dreams, following your heart and living goals! Happy Birthday Sara!"

1...2...3...4... I declare a Thumb War...

-Dirk
