In this special episode of Raising Barbara Jean & Wanda, Kila and Ashley are celebrating something BIG — the 6-year anniversary of Kila and her sister Dixie finding each other. 🥹💛
It's their "sisterversary", and the vibes are emotional, hilarious, and very on-brand.
Dixie joins the show as they look back on:
💌 How they first connected and the day Dixie found Kila
🗓️ Why it feels like it's been both a lifetime and "only three years"
💬 How quickly "strangers" became family, group chats, inside jokes, and all
Of course, it wouldn't be an RBJ&W episode without some chaos and side quests:
🚐 Dixie's RV Life – moving out of the house and into the RV, adjusting with two big dogs, and figuring out what "home" looks like now
🌪️ Storm Panic & Power Outages – Kila prepping for the worst with firewood and backup plans, realizing she actually has gas heat, and talking about folks who went 11 days without power
💇♀️ Julie's Hair vs Todd's Chick-fil-A – the ongoing saga of poor Julie not getting her hair colored while Todd is out here living his best life eating Chick-fil-A weekly
🥴 "Do you need a kidney or something?" – when Dixie suddenly wants to come stay with them for a month, the girls jokingly question her motives in true sister fashion
Underneath all the laughter and nonsense is something really beautiful:
This episode is about chosen family, late-in-life siblings, and what it means when someone goes from a stranger… to "my people" in just a few years.
