Day # 5...my siblings!

I have one brother and one sister. I am the oldest. My sister was born 2 years later. She was the tall sexy girl growing up, and I was shorter, plump and a reader. While she was at the beach in a bikini with boys flocking around her, I was home reading!!! Or playing tennis! Anyway, she married and had 2 boys (grown now) and she lives in Texas. She is a nurse, but she also got a Masters degree in business, and has a big job working for a major hospital chain.

My brother is a master of all. He learned to fly as a young boy (my Dad was a private pilot too), he had many jobs while he was a young adult...including finishing pools, buiding and installing kitchen cabinets, ...he is an insurance broker, and a boat captain. At this point he is a captain full time for a man who owns a luxurious small yacht. He takes him and his wife and dog on trips wherever they want to go, and maintains the boat all year. He is a very loving and generous guy (even though he tortured my sister and I in our youth) and turned out to be a wonderful brother.

I should mention that my sister happens to be a really great sister too, I just wish she was a little more crafty!!! LOL! :0

So there you have it!

Love it! My sister was the more outgoing of the two of us, and you could always find me with a book nearby! Funny how somethings don't change! Your brother has a pretty cool job too!

It sounds like you have a family to be very proud of, Julie. Sorry I've been AWOL recently. I'm participating in a blogging challenge this month, and life has been crazier than usual.
