Meet my MOH. Apparently Sarah doesn't like pictures of her adult self (at least I couldn't find any on Facebook...), although, I really like this picture, because growing up at my grandma's house, this picture was one of the ones I always remember looking at as a kid. She also has one wtih Kermit the Frog that I always affectionately think of.
Sarah is my first cousin. Her mom and my mom are sisters. She has always lived in a different state than me (Mo or Ct), so we didn't see a lot of eachother growing up. But when she did visit, we always had a great time and really got along.
The picture below of the three of us actually hits upon two of my bridesmaids (Hannah is in the soccer jersey. She will have her own post in a bit.) This picture is from 1999, which was a while ago (and it scanned in poorly), but now you know what she looks like as an adult. Good looking both as a child and an adult!!!
Why I choose Sarah to by my MOH-when I was around 12 and Sarah a few years older, we were both in Tucson, walking around our grandparents neighborhood, hanging out. Her and I both happen to be only children (as is Daniel) and we were talking about getting married and stuff like that. We talked about since we are both only children and have no sisters, we should be eachother MOH. We made a pact that day to be eachother's MOH if/when we do get married.
Now forward to several years later-I call her on the phone to ask her to be my MOH. She was so suprised and excited! Although, she assumed that Sarah (my best friend-you will meet her too) was to be my MOH. I told Sarah-MOH, remember our pact? You were always going to be my MOH!
Sarah currently lives in CT, working for ESPN as a journalist. She is going to come out to AZ early and help me get everything finished for the wedding. Thank goodness, because I know I am going to need her help! :-)
Sarah, thank you for being my MOH and following through with our childhood pact! Love you!!
