My Brother ..

Since it's a tradition to write about my family on their birthdays I will continue :

Matty is my little brother .. I should say younger not little since he's about 6'3" and 225lbs (approx) and I'm 5'7" 250lbs (approx)! He is 27 today ....

My favorite memories of my brother and I are:

-staying up ALL night to watch the world juniors play .. Matty was watching the game and I was watching Eric Lindros!!!

-going to the Okanagan every summer so that Matt could go to hockey school and my friends and I could watch the boys and meet Matt's instructors!

-when Matt was younger (grade 8)there was one particular person that would pick on him at school , so one day I seen this particular person walking across the road , so I drove right up to him and hit him with my car .. people should learn not to mess with my family .. I may seem easy going .. UNTIL YOU MESS WITH MY BROTHER!

-travelling EVERYWHERE in BC for hockey tournaments! I was my brother's #1 fan and still am! I don't think I missed one of his games .. well until he moved away to play junior hockey. I did make the 16 hour drive to Port Alberni to watch him play about 5 minutes and then he fought and got kicked out. Oh well we got to visit him in the stands!Ha! Oh and he WON THE FIGHT!

-chaperoning a party that Matt had at my parents house .. I still can't believe that my parents let Matt have a party?! Oh yeah .. he's the youngest and got away with EVERYTHING!

-the night that Matt was beating up some idiot outside the bar and the guy bite him .. I had to fight the guy, not to mention ask him if he was an f'ing dog, and then take Matt up to the hospital for a tetanus shot ! Like I said above don't mess with my family!!! What a night .. good thing I was there to take care of the little guy, okay he probably could have taken care of himself but I like being the BIG sister!

-Ahhh there are sooo many memories .. disneyland and the goofy hat, watching hockey together, go NUCKS, watching Rock'em Sock'em every Christmas, etc ..

Matt has made Dawson Creek his home where he lives with his beautiful wife, and cutest little boy, and one of the way .. not sure if baby is a boy or girl!?!?! Can't wait!

I miss my brother lots and lots .. I wish I could see him more often and that we could watch hockey together like we used to .. it's hard when you get older and have families cause it just seems like time flys and you don't get to see each other very much! Oh well I know he's happy where he is and I'm happy where I am.

TO THE BEST BROTHER EVER .. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MATTY .. I LOVE YA!
