I want to make a best friend tribute because my best friends have always meant so much to me, and life would be so sad without them!!
so let me take some space to tell you how amazing MY best friends are.
I'm going to talk about
Sarah first. Because the true reason I am making this post is because I made a photo collage I was going to post for her birthday and then I forgot.....and I still want this picture to get onto the internet. So here she is: Sarah is the best friend anybody could ask for. Shoot. I'm going to say that about all of them. Oh well. She is the type of person who will do all she can to make you happy when you are down. She has been there for me through everything since 6th grade. She is a hoot and a half....she seriously makes me laugh so hard I could die. She will do all she can to show those around her that she cares. She is so creative and inspiring to anybody who truly knows her. She loves f.r.i.e.n.d.s (the show), her boyfriend Tanner, her family, decorating her new home, and making Puerto Rican food...or maybe just cooking in general...or maybe just cooking for people...I'm not sure.
Here is that pic I wanted to post... you can tell she is both gorgeous and fun! haha
Then we have
Alyx. Alyx is the most genuine friend out there. I met her in 4th grade so we've had awhile to make memories and stuff... one of my all time favorite life memories has got to be staying up all night the summer before 9th grade.... just talking. We were absolutely miserable the next day from exhaustion but it was totally worth it. Alyx is hilarious. Period. She comes up with jokes on the spot before I've even completed a full thought about what is going on. She has also been there for me through everything. I've been able to tell her my deepest secrets in the past and she has always been so understanding and helpful towards my problems. Alyx is an amazing mother, she is also working on a newly purchased home, and she creates art that always turns out perfect somehow.
Last I have to talk about
Michelle! I met Michelle on my mission, my first day in Chicago. She was my trainer and quickly became my best friend! We went through one of Chicago's worst winters together and somehow managed to come out with some incredible experiences and having had a lot of fun. She has always made me feel like I am better than I sometimes think I am, and I owe some of my best experiences to her... skydiving, blue bell ice cream in Texas, my first half marathon, ETC. She has always had my back, and I've never doubted that she cares about me. Michelle is a totally essential person in my life, because we share so many of the same beliefs and standards in life. She just GETS ME. She is one of the most active people I know. She is a hiker, mountain biker, she loves adventures and going to new heights in life.
There are so many other people that shape and influence my life for the better, how can I not be just so thankful?? I have the greatest people in my life!!
