My mom and her sister have birthdays so close together, and so it only makes sense to celebrate them together in one post. Both were born in the 1950s in Yellowknife, N.W.T., and moved to Vancouver Island before either was a teenager.

The look on my aunt’s face is simply priceless!

And though they’ve managed to fight like sisters over their lifetime, they’ve also loved like sisters. Despite all the ups and downs that everyday life can bring, their love, closeness and unfailing support for each other has always remained.

Apparently my mom used to be Drew Barrymore?

I am beyond grateful to have no less than two phenomenal women in my family to cherish, look up to and receive so much love and support from.

Though closely related, each woman is a unique figure in her own way. They most certainly have their differences, but Charley is definitely one thing they can both agree on!

So today, on my Mom’s actual 29th birthday (my Aunt turned 29 at the end of October), I want to take this opportunity to publicly wish them both a very happy birthday. I can’t wait to celebrate with you both next time I’m home because you are both certainly worth celebrating.
