There is nearly a 7 year age gap between my Lil' SIS Shelly and myself. So, needless to say, growing up, we weren't close. But, as the years have passed, we have taken a turn for the better. After Allie was born Shelly became one of my biggest helpers, which led to a close relationship between the two of us. She is so helpful and loving when it comes to Allie... and no offense to my Sis-n-Laws but Shelly is probably Allie's favorite Aunt! Shelly goes out of her way for us. She cuts our hair, babysits, brings surprises, and basically just enjoys spending time with us. Tuesday nights have become Shelly's night at the Lovell house. I usually prepare supper and Shelly comes and hangs out and WE ARE GOING TO MISS that.
Shelly and her husband are moving to North Carolina in a couple of weeks. It is a move that is best for their family to better prepare for the future. Their plan is to take care of a couple of things while away and come back to Alabama in 2 years. Alex plans to go back to school while there.
Anyway. This is a sad time for my family because we will miss her very much. So, last night we had a little going away party for her and it was very nice to get together with the Wales family.

Sisters. I told Heather L. to take this picture because she was the only one I trusted to take it. Look at it! Blurry.
Abby and Allie. They sure had fun playing at the party!
