I Am Thankful For My Girls =)

I have some of the best friends anyone could ask for.  Whether we grew up together from diapers to wedding days, or we just met a couple years ago through a friend of a friend, all my friends are wonderful.  Some are a little troublesome, some are a little SLOW...others are selfless and will give the shirt off their back.  Either way, my friends are amazing! So I've been thinking.  This month, we give thanks.  We give thanks for the people and the blessings in our lives.  I want to give thanks to the beautiful, talented, wonderful, kind, special LADIES in my life!

This is Miss Julianna Cole.  We were born exactly a week apart.  We grew up together, litterally.  When we were babies, my mother kept her while her parents worked.  As we got older, we went back and forth to each others houses, and then when High School came along, her mother would pick us up after school and I would stay at their house for a couple hours before Dad came to get me.  When senior year came along, and my mom left for Florida, I moved in with her family for a couple months (before I got kicked out on account of we were covering for each other too much--haha) Even when we lived together, we never fought. We have gone 21 years without having ONE fight, which I think is pretty awesome! We will be friends until the end of time, there is no doubt about that. Near or far, she will always be the sister God forgot to give me and I love her more than words can say!
                                       
Miss Brittany Willis.  This girl is PHEN-OM-EN-AL!  I LOOOOOVE Brittany! We met in the car-rider line freshman year of High School and we have been best friends ever since.  She is SO talented! Give her a paint brush and let her go! We have had fun times, bad times, good times, sad times....but through it all, she has been my rock.  She looks out for me, and let's face it, I definitely need it!  We went to Daytona Beach spring break our senior year and on the plane ride over, I got very sick! She held my barf bag (haha) and from then on, I KNEW we would be best friends for life! She is one of my biggest fans, forever begging me to sing to her...sometimes it's a pain, but then again, I love it when she asks because it shows how much she appreciates my talent, as I hers.  She is one of those friends who will give you the shirt off her back.  We will be best friends forever and ever and ever!


This is Miss Samantha Genaw.  Girl is CRAAAZYYY =) But I love her a million times over!  We met freshman year of high school at tryouts for the Christmas play.  She was a little on the nerdy side, and very very quiet.  But we clicked instantly.  We have definitely had our moments, and we fight like sisters.  But at the end of the day, she's my partner in crime.  She was there with me when I had my first car accident...she has been there through all crazy relationships.  (The one girl I know would kick some booty if anyone hurt me =) ) We joke that boys better shape up and start treating us right or one day we're gonna just be lesbians...HOT lesbians. (HAH!) But no, the girl is AWESOME and I LUFF HER MUCHO!

Miss Rosalie Baumgarder.  Rosalie and I met my sophomore year of high school.  Our moms worked together.  After some unfortunate events, Rosalie had to come live with my mom and I.  I didn't like her at first, but she started to grow on me, and soon we were very close!  I was with her as she learned to drive, and I was there when she got her first speeding ticket.  (Yea, that was MY bad haha) I admire her tremendously!  She has been through a lot of tough times, but she has been strong!  She is very responsible, owning her own hair salon at only 22.  We have had some really fun times together. I got my nickname "Cooter" from her....long long story!  She has been there for me through thick and thin!  We will always be sisters at heart and I will love her to the grave!

These girls will be my bridesmaids.  Their children will be my children's playmates (when we are together).  Though we may live in different parts of the world at some point, (we've already been there), the distance won't change much at all.  I am thankful every day for these girls and will be FOREVER thankful that God put them in my life. 

To Julianna, Brittany, Samantha and Rosalie....you guys ROCK! Thank you so much for everything you are....NEVER EVER change!  Thank you for always being there for me, whether I needed a shoulder, a ride, a couple bucks, a favor.....ya'll have always seen me through! I could spend the rest of my life thanking you and it would never be enough! I LOVE YA'LL TO THE MOON AND BACK A MILLION TIMES!

 XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO

Don't worry....I'm thankful for my BOYS too! But that's a different post for a different day =)
