One Year of Best Friends

Ok, so head's up, there is going to be a mass amount of blogging this week because it was a busy busy weekend and I don't want to cram it all into one post. So, this is the first post that was discussed in May about Boondocks for the RC Willey work party, but never happened because I never got the pictures from Checko til the other day. But here they are. They also came at a good time, because yesterday, the 4th of July, Checko called me while I was on my date and left a message saying that we have officially been real friends for one year. Not just Oakcrest friends, but real friends. My first memory of us goofing off was writing the name song for camp, and then I think the first time we bonded was at staff pictures when we had the common connection of having the same medical procedure done to us that could be some sort of ancient chinese torture. :D
Then last year on the 4th of July, we hadn't had enough of each other living together for the last month, so we met up after camp and went to a BBQ at her friend Kyle's house. (Except he is now my friend too.) Then we went to fireworks at my favorite spot and out for ice cream at iceberg. Sweet memory. From that day on, we have been best friends. We still have other best friends that have jumped in which we love, but it's crazy to think how fast that year went, and how sometimes it feels like we've been friends for so much longer.
We've been through a lot together in the last year, surviving camp, both of us dealing with crazy boys both good and bad, her becoming a missionary and then coming home for medical reasons, sleeping in the same bed for two weeks, partially because I was so sunburned I couldn't get on the top bunk and partially because we love being cuddly. We've talked about anything and everything, served others and served each other. We both just love life and have had countless good times and memories that we'll have forever and many more to come!!
