"GUESS" who is getting OLD????

Any GUESSes?
Here is a clue:

ALISSE T. SHERWOOD BALDWIN,
that's who!
My younger sister { Alisse } ROCKS.
If you know her, you know what I'm talkin about.

Here are a few random & great things about her.

Alisse is really smart she got a scholarship to ASU, but really wanted to go to BYU. SO.. of course she left & became a COUGAR.
What made her come home after ONE YEAR? I am pretty sure it was when she was on the phone listening to ELLIE being delivered & her not being home to meet her... but, there is probably more to that!

Alisse really likes music.

Especially BANDS.

(& some music that I have no interest in, but she really digs it, so that's cool)

Alisse was a "princess for the day". (and still is every day, I mean)

Our family went to the Renaissance Festival & Alisse got picked out of the crowd to be

"THE PRINCESS FOR THE DAY".

She wore that tiara (or whatever you call it) with PRIDE ALL day. She even had it as part of her decor in our bedroom forever. What a good older sister I was to get in the picture with the PRINCESS ..... to be her PRINCE, I guess.. HA HA!!

Alisse & I were always
{insert the voice of ANDY ANDERSON here}
MATCHING.

(Hotties!!!)
We always had fun when we traveled.

Alisse, remember I am being nice. I used this picture... BUT I gotta give a shout out to

COTTAGE OVER BOARD!!!!

And we are in love!!!

Like I said... we are in love!!!

Love the PROM POSE in Hawaii!!!! How romantic.

HA HA HA!!

Speaking of IN LOVE... Alisse found her true love & I am so glad she married him. I love Scott.
AND SO DOES ELLIE!!
She's always had a bit of a crush on him!
They are a PERFECT MATCH.
Alisse is such a good AUNT!!
She loves all of her nieces & nephews so much.
She SPOILS all of them tons.
Here are some pictures of a couple years back when Alisse gave Ellie tickets to
"Disney Princesses On Ice".
(SPOILED!!!)


Alisse & Scott babysit all of the kids a WHOLE LOT & even let them have sleep overs with them! Ellie loves it every time. (HINT... hint... HINT)


Alisse is such a great sister. She is always there to talk to or laugh with.. whatever!
I appreciate the example she is to me & my family.
Alisse was a beautiful bride.
(I loved her wedding & reception)

Alisse is a great daughter! She does so much to make my parents happy.


She loves her church calling! And I bet that all of her kids love her just as much.
Alisse is obsessed with LOST, The Office, & America's Next Top Model... just to name a few.
Alisse still likes her sisters to do her hair!

Alisse has some of the cutest decor in her house! It is so cheerful. I love it.
(Who is your decorator, Alisse? *wink!)



What a hard worker.
I know she does a lot for the place she works for.
(NO, she doesn't work at a carnival)

Speaking of CHEERFUL ....


Alisse knows how to make anyone laugh & she can always liven up any party.
She is HILARIOUS!!!!!
Smart.. I already mentioned, but she's also a great teacher!

Ellie loves to ask her:
"Leasy, tell me what you learned at school today/this week."
I am grateful for the time she has spent with Ellie, cause Ellie loves to SIGN!!

One of Alisse's most favorite movies ( I think her #1).....
PLEASE.
If you don't know this....
16 CANDLES!!!
What a cute Sam & Jake!!

She is always ready & willing to help out She's Got It All.

All SERVICE!!!

And.....

She is hot!

Happy birthday Alisse.

There are so many more great things that I love about you.

I am so thankful to have you as a sister. You are always making me & other people laugh. You are such a good example.

I hope you have a great BIRTHDAY WEEKEND.

Go party like a rock star.

OK, I swear that I did my post yesterday and saved it as a draft & changed the time & date to today... I didn't see yours first and then do mine. But you & I made so many of the same references about Alisse. There are so many things I realized I left out of my post when I read yours. You're the BOMB Alisse! Happy Birthday.

Dear Ted,

Me = DYING right now!

Seriously, I am at my house laughing & snorting so loud. That GUESS pic is (Andie Anderson) ATTRACTIVE! I don't know if I've ever seen it, but my pleated shorts and our hair cuts are BAD NEWS BEARS!

Yes, I was officially DONE at BYU when my Ella Bella was born and I wasn't there. (crying right now thinking about that!!)

Oh Ted, for realz- the princess for the day at the renaissance festival?? How did you remember that?? And sorry for displaying it on our bed post for 5+ years after that. And you know you've always been my prince charming! Looks like we've been in love all our lives!

I'm glad I married Scott, too... but I think Ellie was the most glad! Remember at Noah's blessing the family picture? Lance was holding her, but she had one arm reaching over touching Scott. It seems like Ellie was meant to be ours or something! ;)

LOL LOL to the sisters doing my hair pictures! You know I still love it! But from what I remember, I HATED it until I reached junior high! I've never seen that pic of my "corn rows" but I specifially remember you doing them! Thank ya kindly for humoring me being your bebe sister!

Thanks for the nicest post! And, you're welcome kindly for being born today, 23 years ago.
