yay for my oh so fantastic girls! i am so incredibly blessed to have all of these ladies in my life. i have shared so much with ALL of these ladies & i can't imagine not having them stand at my side as i say "i do!"
Kristen is & has always been such an amazing friend to me (since the summer before 6th grade). she truly has allowed me to be me...regardless. that is something you don't find in many people. she has been there for me through thick & thin...no questions asked. there are really no words to explain my love & appreciation for our friendship.
Lindsey & i were drawn to each other the first couple of weeks in 6th grade (side note - i moved to a new school in 6th grade & linds, erica & kristen made this transition so easy on me!). linds always has fantastic words of wisdom...she is way beyond her years with great advice. she never judges...just encourages. linds has such a fantastic heart that is filled with so much love. i couldn't imagine linds not being in my life...she is truly an enormous blessing! (i know that i have already said blessing 5 hundred times...but it is going to be used plenty more times during this post!)
Erica...ah...erica! i can still remember the outfit that i meet erica in for the first time. the plaid green (still her fav color) vest & short combo with clogs & her bright green contacts. she looked so cute & i know i will never forget her outfit. erica has one of the biggest hearts i have ever seen. she is such a romantic & i love that about her. she loves being loved & giving love. she has incredible "smart" jokes that always keep me entertained. she helps me stay focused on the positive things in life because she is always able to find them. i am so blessed to be able to call erica my friend!
Andrea came into my life in HS. she is a grade older then me BUT we grew very close on the song squad! we have been through so much together. andrea has helped dry my eyes, make me laugh & knock some sense into me, too. HS would not have been the same with out the memories that andrea & i made together. our friendship grew even stronger after HS. i know that we don't get to see each other as much as we would both like (life is crazy!) we will always have an undeniable bond that i will cherish forever. i am spoiled with good friends!
Anna is my brother Jeremy's girlfriend. she has blessed our lives for over 7 years! i love, love, love anna! she is truly like a sister & i consider her family. she fits perfectly in with our family & is an amazing match with jer. they balance each other so well. i cannot imagine our family without her. she cracks me up & is such a talented photographer! jer picked a fantastic girl when he picked anna! i am so glad she is one of my bridemaids...it would not be the same without her! God blessed our entire family when jer brought her home! Love ya Anna! :)
i know, i know...i have said i am blessed BUT seriously...i am so blessed. i seriously get all warm and fuzzy inside when i think about what amazing friends i have. thank you girls for being a part of my special day.
I love you all SO much!!
