girlfrands!

[girlfriends are the sisters you pick out for yourself]

it has been a girlfriend week! and i love them. everyone needs a couple good girlfriends, and i'm so lucky that i have many good ones! but this week was swimming in them. here's all the sweeties i got to see this week (:

BECCA dear came down from rexburg to see me. its always good to see her smiling face and she sure can always make me laugh!

MICHELLE drove up from provo just to take me out for dinner on my birthday. such a sweetheart. she has always been such a loyal and dependable friend (:

SIERRA and BETSY were my roomies back in 07. i looove these girls. such good examples to me and always there for me. and don't they just have the cutest kids!? it was the best catch-up time and we spoiled ourselves at dinner. 

here's a mix of friends. CARISSA missa that i've been BFF's with since i was five. KATY my first and best teacher friend i met at bear lake last summer. and RACHEL my bestie that just came home from  her mission from albania, and flew out from VA to see my on my birthday! we went to zupas to eat and my, it was yummy- licked our plates clean.

EMMA is the girl i can always act silly with. she lives in provo now with her husband joe, which i can never seem to get over.... joseph and emma.... get it! 

REBEKAH is a hoot! she says it like it is and gives great advice. she is married to her perfect match and has one cute kid. she is my friend from VA and i got to see her while i was in provo. i wish i had taken a pic while i was at her place but we were too busy laughing. 

RACHEL stayed with me for 2 weeks. it's so good to have her back. she really is like my sister. it was so good to have her as a roommate again. 

i just love girlfriends! and am thankful for every, single one- even if i didn't see you this week! (:
