I never thought I would see the day where my little sister would get married.  She is one of my best friends and if you’ve ever been around us you would know there’s never a dull moment when we’re together.  She’s the life of every party and everyone will know she’s there as soon as she walks into a room.  I pretty much have lived under the same roof as her our entire life including our crappy college apartment with black mold everywhere.  So I think I would be the best candidate for providing you with some survival tips.  

• Don’t make any irrational decisions without knowing the consequences because she will defiantly steer you in the wrong direction for her own personal amusement.
• Don’t leave dishes in the sink!! She will be nice about it at first and just do them for you but don’t be fooled it won’t last for long.
• Learn to cook because she would rather not.
• Challenge her in everything, because she is very competitive. She’ll love kicking your butt.
• She’ll try and recommend watching scary movies but she’s a huge chicken. If you do caved, she’s not going to sleep and she won’t go anywhere by herself. You’ll have to accompany her to go get a drink, get a sweat shirt from her room, and even walk her to the bathroom. It doesn’t make a difference if it’s in the day time either.
• She doesn’t have the patience to read directions or to ask questions, she killed an entire tank of fish because she couldn’t wait 24 hours to get the tank ready.  
• She loves to dance and be goofy. So having any kind of app that distorts your face or changes your voice will only be a plus.
• Lastly, calming the beast.  The best thing you can do is just try to avoid arguing with her because you’ll never win. She will end up crying or mad at you for a couple hours so it’s best to just tell her she’s right. Even if you know in your heart and its burning inside of you just keep it to yourself before you get hurt.

 Under her horns and scales though is one of the most loving, caring hearts you will ever know.  Anytime you’re down in the dumps she’s going to be right there by your side trying to put a smile back on your face.  If you have ever seen her coaching or playing on the softball diamond, managing a swim up bar in the summer, or seen her the classroom you would easily be able to tell she is one of the hardest and most efficient workers you’ll ever see. Even though I’m the older brother I still look up to her and try to be more like her every day.  She’s faithful.  She’s courageous.  She’s one of the best sisters anyone could ever ask for.  You look beautiful tonight sis. I love you and wish you the best. Cheers to the bride and groom.
