Girlfriends...

...there's nothing like them! I saw my awesome girlfriends from high school yesterday. Thanks for organizing and having it at your parents house Sarah! There were 23 kids (newborn babies included) and complete chaos! But so fun. I thought I'd write a quick favorite memory about each of these girls...

Michelle (far left)...she was one of my first friends when my family moved to Orem in 9th grade. She had the most beautiful long, thick blonde hair (and still has beautiful hair :) We were the crazy dancers at high school dances...remember Oops I Did it Again and Who Let the Dogs Out Michelle?

Whitney (left on the couch)...Whit and I were BYU buddies. We hung out alot, especially our freshman year. We had BYU sports passes and went to all the BYU home games together. That year BYU played Utah at home...it was one of the come back to win games and we pretty much got pushed out of our seats and left early and MISSED IT! Oh well...we still had fun together!

Stephanie (middle couch)...oh there's so much to say about Steph. I've talked about memories with her over the time I've had this blog and there are so many...quazy mazy, Wingers, living at Raintree, weddings, babies, trips, shopping, eating out...it just goes on. I can't believe she has three children now and none of them are little babies! I love ya!

Beth B. (middle couch)...Beth and I became good friends in Mr. Kramer's photo class (remember that Beth!) She's our amazing dancer friend and I loved watching her at the Miss PG pageant...she was awesome! We had fun hanging out in her parents backyard with a pool...she had an awesome reception there!

Heather O. (middle couch)...this girl makes me laugh...she's so awesome! We were the BRC in cheer (Back Row Crew!) She did so many funny things to make us all laugh...you gotta love Heather! She's been gone for quite a few years now with her husband in medical school and has been such a trooper. We love when she comes back to visit.

Beth H. (right couch)...Beth and I were the "backspots" in high school cheer...lots of funny stories with that! She was always a good influence for all of us in high school. She is one amazing clogger and runs a big operation now! She's the one with cute little red-heads now...we'll see if my kids get it too!

Heather B. (Left standing)...we were inseparable in 9th and 10th grade. We did EVERYTHING together and talked SO much on the phone. Oh my Heather do you remember that! She was so sweet and threw me a 15th bday party at her house. She hooked me up with lots of free food at a juice place she worked at by her house...and I used to go visit her every night and hang out (it definitely wasn't a busy place :) Love ya Heather!

Amber (middle standing)...Amber was the other "newbie" friend like me in 9th grade. We joined "the club" of girls later on (glad they added us to the group!) She had a pool at her house we'd go swim at. Her house was usually where we'd end up after games on Friday nights. So fun!

Jessica (middle standing)...another I have many memories with. She knew boys from timbucktoo. We were brave and asked guys out all the time...50 cent Tuesdays Jess! She had a blueish green car we'd tool around in. Now she's such an amazing seamstress and helps me with sewing projects alot! You're awesome Jess!

Sarah (right standing)...like Steph there's a bit much to talk about with this girl...so many fun times. Her parents owned a condo in Midway we'd all go up to lots in high school...remember our own private Kalai concert! Again shopping, movies, eating out, trips (to visit her when she lived in Vegas), driving around in the purple Honda...you name it we did it!

I wanted to do this to express my love for all of these girls. You have made life fun over the years and its so fun to stay in touch...I hope we always do.
