I’m grateful to have you both as sisters and best friends. We have been through so many things and have so many memories together. I feel so blessed to have such an amazing family…especially my sisters! (move back Ker!) Not many families have what we have and I’m grateful everyday for it. Thanks for putting up with me and for all your love and support to my little family! Family is forever and I’m glad you in mine! 🙂 Love you guys and hope you have the happiest of birthdays!

I love being your LJ “manager” and look forward to seeing how far you go this upcoming year with LJ. You are both very talented. Hope you have a very special day! Love ya forever…

To Kristi and Kelli, We found out that there were two of you in October, two months before you were born. Nana and Poppy were on a mission in Chili. We sent a telegram to them (no email in those days) and said: “Roses are Red, Violets are Blue, We’re not having one baby, But TWO!” We didn’t put a signature on the telegram though… On purpose. They had no idea which of their kids were expecting twins. But the next day, we sent a second telegram identifying ourselves. Poppy always loved a good joke!
Needless, to say, you had to have a sense of humor to raise the two of you! Seriously, though, you girls bring such joy to the entire family. It’s double everything, but especially double the fun!
Have an awesome day.
Love, MOM
Sugar and spice and everything twice. Never knew would be twice is spicy. Best wishes to two of my favorites on your #31!

Happy Birthday to my Tazmanian Devil sisters, Kristi Jane & Kelli June! Quick story: when the twins were about the age shown in the above picture (4-ish), one of the Carpenter girls (Kim or Becky) who lived across the street were babysitting them. Kristi and Kelli (in their typical double-trouble style) locked the babysitter out of the house and then got into the utility sink in the laundry room where they stripped their clothes and turned on the water. As the babysitter pleaded with them through the window to let them in, Kristi and Kelli danced in the sink and maniacally laughed at her as the water began to overflow and flood the house. The babysitter ran home and got her dad who broke the window to put a stop to their fun. Who would have ever thought that these two hellraisers would one day marry superb men, have beautiful children and become refined, creative and talented specimens of womanhood?!? Not me.
I love you Kristi & Kelli! Happy Birthday!! Love your #1 brother, John.
“Double your pleasure, double your fun!” You twins are like Wrigley’s doublemint gum! Life is always action packed and full of laughs with you around. I am so blessed to have you both as sissies!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Love, Traci
To my favorite twin sisters, Happy 31st birthday!! Boom chicka boom you guys are OLD. Whhaaat not as old as our other sisters though. Ha! Dang guys we are like all adults now and you two have kids and Kel, you have an almost tween. When did this happen? I feel like we should be in the kitchen opening up the cabinets to make rooms out of them. Or you should be sneaking me to the Warped Tour or a Blink 182 concert or something. Now you guys are in your early 30’s and that is just weird. You guys are my favorite and I miss you both every day. Happy happy birthday!! I love you guys.
Love, your baby sis
Happy birthday!
Love Chris
HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my sistahs!!!! Hope your day is great!
Love you, Jen
Hey Kristi, Happy Birthday. Tell Kelli that too.

Kristi and Kelli, Words can not express how proud I am of the two of you.

I knew you would do something amazing with all the energy yout wo had:) I hope you have a wonderful birthday and an amazing year of good fortune. I love you both (said with tears:)

Happy Birthday Kelli! You have been a great addition to our family.
Love, Bob
Happy 31st Birthday, you crafty chicas! I only wish I had 1/8th of your talents–no I don’t, because then I would still be comparing myself to you and coming up short, so I’ll be content to be a “craft geek” with your Mom–and proud of it! (We have other talents………)
Seriously, you two are SOOOO amazing, and SOOOO sweet–what a rare combination!
We are all blessed to have you in our wonderful Payne family, and want you to know of our love for you both.
Hugs from Auntie C.

Hello again! Happy Birthday to you both! It seems like not that long ago, we were kicking up dust on Fairview Lane, playing no bears are out tonight, and every other shenanigan we could think of! Emily and I wish you the happiest of birthdays, and hope that you have many, many more opportunities to reflect on the crazy big pile of blessings that accumulates as we go through life! Whether or not you end up trying all 31 flavors at Baskin Robin’s, we hope you find a great way to celebrate (as my Dad would say) “31 trips around the sun”!
All the best, Alan and Emily Taylor
Happy birthday ladies! I have so many happy memories of our two families growing up on Fairview. Seeing the posts of you guys and your sibs on Facebook always makes me smile.
Love, Amy Carpenter Null
To the coolest twins I know, I followed you two and my sister around as a child, annoying, tattling and ruining plans. You would play funny harmless jokes on Kerry and I, but all the time I was looking up to you guys. I hope your birthday is filled with friendship, laughter and love. Happy Birthday!
