young and dumb.....older and wiser


I love this picture. It was taken last summer on our annual camping trip to Lake Somerville. Brandon's family and I along with some other folks take a trip on a weekend and go camping. We water ski, tube, knee board- anything in the water you can imagine. So this particular picture was taken in the "kids" tent, it fit about 10 of us and it had been raining so we took cover
( because rain is sooooooooo scary, haha). We just got done playing catch phrase with everyone and we were all hyper and started taking pictures. This one turned out the best. In this picture is Ashley Sirman and Cheri Wood, 2 of my favorite people on the planet. Friends come and go in your life but these are 2 girls that have been through thick and thin with me. I love them to death and would go through anything to be there for them. As you get older you become wiser, sounds silly, I know. But you get a chance to look back growing up and think of all the good times and bad times and when I think back, I think of these 2 people. Yes, I have a lot of friends ( not bragging at all) but I have a handful of friends that I call best friends, and these girls definitely fit that mold of being a best friend. I could go on and on about Ashley and Cheri but I will leave with this, there is nothing better than having a friend to lean on, to call, to cry to, to laugh with, to be mad at, and to be happy with. Friends are a gift from God and I know he chose Ashley and Cheri to be a part of my life for a reason.

Now, enough of being emotional. I hope everything is having a great weekend cause I know I am. I got to sleep in for the first time in GOD knows how long. :)

PS- If ya'll could say some prayers for my brother I'd super appreciate it. He hasn't been the same since he came home from California and I am just worried about him. So say a little prayer...thanks ya'll!!!!
