My sister is worth.........
A recycled card:
Joyce first gave me this card in 1999. I found it a year or two later, and it's been going ever since. It's a beautiful card, and has been meaningful every year.
A trip across town to the Salvation Army to take advantage of their half-price sale so I could nab this beauty for 2 dollars.
Here's a close-up of the lovely horse motif.
Happy ugly sweater day sis!

Okay. Were it in my power, you would win. That is one UGLY sweater!
Love the card, though.
Carole: you were right after all, about the wings and feathers anyway. It was not a chicken; it was a mallard duck soup urn and ladle. I found it in my cupboard where I've been safely keeping things out of my kids reach for the last seven years. I put away my pickled egg dish and there it was. It will return to its fridgetop roost once I clear away the playdoh basket and halloween candy. Today I also happened upon my Grandma's old black pumps from the 1940's and will proudly wear them to my aunt and uncle's anniversay party today. What a day...she must be thinking about me.
It was great to see all you gals again...that whole cheese smearing thing demolished all those prim and proper memories I have of you perched in front of the piano.
Who knew?

Oh dear, prim and proper NOT! I think I scared a few people that night..... But not to worry, I save the food things for near and dear family members! Glad to hear you found the duck dish; may it live proudly atop your fridge.
It was great fun to reconnect with you after all these years. Happy birthday!
that was one fancy schmancy sweater...was good to meet you!!
What a wonderful card - and relationship!
and what a truly awful sweater.
