Better Than The Haynes Sisters

If you understood the reference in the title of this post then give yourself a hand!

The Haynes sisters, better known as the girls that stole the hearts of Bing Crosby and Danny Kay in White Christmas, sang, danced and dazzled crowds. The music and love stories of White Christmas are what captures most people. And yes, you can't beat Bing's breath-taking blue eyes, but for me, the reason I love it most is the Hayne's sisters. When I watch this movie, they always remind me of mine.

I'm lucky enough be one of three sisters. Each of us are very different. And though we resemble each other with similar features,we don't look alike. We don't always agree, we yell and hang up on each other, we call back and apologize, and we can laugh together at the ridiculous life situations we end up in (they are usually the one's laughing at whatever recent disaster I find myself in) . I was trying to come up with the best way to talk about the three of us without just saying we love each other, and being a fan of lists, I came up with these.

Here are the 5 things that the three of us will always agree on, will forever keep us close, and straight up make us the better, true-to-life version of any sister duo or trio in movies.

1. Our love of love stories. From a heart manipulating movie to a really well told story from our friends and family, love stories move us. We will always ask "How did you two meet?" for the pure fact that we're hoping to hear a doosey one of these days.
   
2. Dessert. We blame it on our Dad. He instilled the ever famous Eggo waffle sundae after dinner. No matter the meal, dessert is never forgotten. Our sweet teeth are fine tuned and always on the prowl.
3. Never settling for anything less than the kind of love you want to last for as long as possible. Having parents who are still married and that not only tolerate, but really love each other are the driving force behind it.
   
4. There will never be any strawberry in the world as delicious as the strawberries we grew in my grandparents garden. The patch was ours. Granted our grandfather did most of the work, but he still said it was ours :) To this day they were the best fruit I've ever had.
   
5. Make-up, hair and accessories. Because we beleive the finer things and looks in life are always found in the details. We are a trifecta of style. One of us rocks the make-up muscle, the other can do amazing things with hair, while the third can dress up pajamas with the right scarf, belt or bracelet and it can be mistaken for couture.
   

So while we might not don blue feathered dresses (although, that doesn't sounds like a bad idea at all) or have the ability to carry a tune, I can absolutely say that the Haynes gals got nothin' on us. Here's the fun little song that inspired this post - Sisters.

Winks and smiles B's :)
