Big Sis Reveal!

For the past few weeks I have been giving my little sister gifts and trying to get to know her without giving away that I was her "Big". It has been so fun. On Wednesday I texted her and she asked me if I could take her to get her "Big" a gift for Thursday- well not wanting to say "no" and give it away I agreed (plus I know what a drag it is to not have a car). So I took her shopping for a gift- for me. I tried to kind of just go to the opposite side of the store and let her do her own thing! So I thought I was being so slick and really she was trying to figure out if I was her "Big" by asking if I could take her. Well I fooled her!

To "reveal" ourselves each of the "Bigs" was given a ball of yarn to wind around the entire room and then the "littles" were given an end to follow through the room until they got to their "big". Mine finished first and she freaked out- I wish we had it on camera! She honestly had no idea- it was the cutest thing. Nobody could beat her reaction!

How fun that you didn't give it away...I love the string idea! I chatted with your mom, and it sounds like you both had a great weekend...so great that she could fly out!
