My little sister Tessa is coming to visit, and I'm beyond excited. She's bringing along two of her best friends, Claire and Ally, who are like family to us, so I'll have a house full of teenagers! Just typing that out makes me feel very old. It seems like yesterday that I was crying (literally) because she was going to kindergarten, and I felt she was growing up too fast. Chloe (pictured above) was a young pup back then. It's hard to believe that Tessa is sixteen. But one thing has never changed: the two of them are still the best of friends. I've never seen a dog as committed to someone as Chloe is to Tessa.

p.s. Tessa is wearing a dress from Emerging Thoughts.

























Beauty and sweetness clearly run in your family. Enjoy the weekend with your girlfriends. :)

This is a very sweet post about your sis! Are you two very close? Must be since she is visiting! And Keiko, you are NOT old!! Although, I know what you mean... my sister is 16... going on 17 (had to throw that Sound of Music reference in there) and I am older than YOU! :)

I was very confused for a moment there! I thought you had radically changed your look!
ReplyDeleteTessa is so pretty! She's clearly inherited her big sister's sense of style- That dress is absolutely stunning on her!

What a sweet little story between your sister and her puppy!
ReplyDeleteI am imagining your parents are both stunning aren't they. Look at the looks in your family! Absolute beauty.. a natural beauty too, which is the best kind :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet pup. Time sure does travel on... That's why I try to keep my days riddled with adventure and experiments. Never a dull moment here, I'm sure it's the same for you Keiko.
Sending my love to you and your sis and her pup all the way from Canadaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa x

It's funny, at first, I would never think she was your sister. Then I studied her face for a minute, and then the resemblance was obvious. She is beautiful, just like you!
ReplyDeleteAnd Chloe looks like the sweetest dog ever! (Besides my own, of course.) The bond with a dog is one of the most special things in the world.
Such a sweet post! Your sister & her dog are adorable! Makes me miss my 16 year old little sister! /:
