I remember going over to her house with my mom when I was still in diapers and being jealous of her game closet, and her big front room. I also remember the time when I was in 5th grade and her in 3rd and we went to the pool and spent the entire time watching a couple making out. We couldn't believe people would be doing something so gross at all, let alone in public. Or the time when I quit being her friend because she got a horse and I didn't. I loved horses more than her so what made her more worthy to have one? Jealousy was at its finest. We had spent hours and hours on bus rides home from school coming up with horse names and Iii had come up with the coolest names. I deserved a horse more than her. I guess you could say things got awkward but I was still her friend from a distance. I mean I did buy numerous outfits that I had seen on her first and thought were cute, even if I had only seen them from a distance at church, or crossing the street after she got off the bus. Friends always have the same outfits. It was a little uncomfortable for me when we became friends again and I had to explain to her why we had all the same clothes, but she was ok with it and that is why she became my best friend. It had been 6 years since we were friends when we both made vistauns. We would carpool and she would always force me to get food at the gas station with her. We never talked much besides that. Slowly but surely, though, we got glued to the hip and realized we were very similar. A lot of people didn't like us because we preferred having fun and not being boring. Maybe they were jealous? We didn't see why people would be bothered by us pinning them down on the floor so we could kiss them, or us not caring if the team was good, and dance as spastically as we could. Why would people get so upset about us walking around with our pants and underwear halfway down our bums? We had come to the conclusion that everyone was only out to get us. I graduated and we have dealt with much distance, me moving to florida for 7 months, and her moving to hawaii for a whole year, but we are still the best of friends and to celebrate her 20th birthday I would like to share 20 of my favorite memories with her.
1. That one time we went ice skating in life jackets. Gotta be careful in case that ice melts
2. When we would tell people we were leaving their house, but sneak back in and hide in their closet all night and spy on them.
3. Randomly freaking out because we wonder "what if you were only my imaginary friend and I was doing all this by myself?...." It is a scary thought.
4. Jumping into 1st dam on my 20th birthday. C Hess! (jk this is my worst memory.)
5. Asking boys to hang out with us and when they show up we are wearing this....
6. Putting flyers from events that happened over 2 years ago on every car on campus, movie theater parking lots, and wal mart.
7. When we rode our bikes all the way to Brigham City and had to hitch hike home because we were too tired.
8. Asking someone on a double date and have them show up to find out they are on a date with both of us...
9. Driving around the truckers at Arby's blasting Christmas music and Opera.
10. Pretending we are homeless at the front of Wal-mart and asking for money.
11. That one time McKell was dumped by two guys she didn't even know she was dating... all within 3 days of each other
12. Slumber party for vistauns when everyone slept on the floor and we took the King sized bed in the guest room.
13. Going to a hang out of all Logan High people and telling them I go to Logan high and starting to cry and say I am a really big Loner when they all claim not to know me. I think they felt pretty bad.
14. Going places dressed up as twins.
15. The phase we went through where we couldn't go to wal-mart without taking a picture with this sign.
16. Going to Harry potter Midnight showing and passing Beth a note that said 'Avada Kedavra' through 30 people waiting in line.
17. Creating a Hand shake that no one was ever ever allowed to copy!!!
18. Slumber Party the night before Derick came home from his mission!
19. Promising ourselves and each other we are going to act normal when hanging out with other people but always failing miserably..
20. And all the many many others:
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!
