My Kindred Spirits, My Confidantes, My Homegirls

This weekend, two of my besties came up to visit me. Talia and JBod.
It was a really fun weekend!

We did a LOT of laughing and reminiscing, as usual, and I loved every minute of it.
Some of the things we did this weekend:

- Food. And LOTS of if. (Namely, The Beehive Grill, Charlie's, Homemade breakfast, Juniper Take-out, Pita Pit and junk food. All within less than 48 hours).

- Some Wedding website searching. Blog stalking. And such. Because I'm getting married and all, so of course we had to do that kind of stuff! It was really fun. I can't wait to do some more planning and scheming with the gals.

- Movies (The Wedding Singer, Love Happens, Our Lips Are Sealed, Holiday in the Sun {possibly Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen movies. We were just reliving our great childhood!} and Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants- dos.) Winter and Snow usually = movies.

-Laughing. So. Much. ("So, warlocks?" "No way!" etc.)

-CRAFTS. This was the highlight. We spent over an hour in the craft store on Saturday. (Sorry, Tyson- again). Craft stores are a little bit like Heaven. There were so many options, that was the problem. We finally got our craft ideas and supplies and headed out. We ended up making some really cute stuff. Mod Podging and Headband making. I was really pleased. So were Tals and Bod.

Overall, it was just a fun and relaxed weekend. We just spent time together, something we hadn't done in far too long. I miss those girlies. I love them too! And all my other besties.

So, surprise, surprise, today my gratitude post is on Friends.
I have some of the best ones.
We've been through thick and thin together.
We've experienced childhood, puberty, Junior High, High School, College and everything in between together.
We have endless memories together.
We always have a good time and we always laugh until our stomaches hurt.
Not only do we have a good time, but my friends are inspiring and amazing people. They are righteous. They are so ambitious. They are independent. They are beautiful. They are just plain awesome. They are GREAT friends. And I mean that, sincerely. I wish we could play more often. But I think this way, our limited time together makes it a little more special.

Friends are great. Mine are the greatEST. I love them. I'm lucky, once again. Thanks girls for an EXCELLENT weekend! Success.
