I miss my Bestie...

So it is like 2am (dallas time) and my bestfriend Kandace just put up her graduation pictures from today... and I am soooo home sick. I guess I'm more like, bestfriend sick. I miss her so much!
Today she graduated from university and I wasn't able to be there to enjoy the special moments with her. I hate that! Kandace is one of the most amazing girls that I know. We have been through so much together and have come so far together as well. I feel so blessed to have a friend like her in my life. When ever I think about her I have to laugh. I have boxes back at home FULL of random pictures we have taken over the years. Even though most of them are just face shots... I can tell you exactly where we were and what was going on in each one of them. Hahaha. She has got to be the funnest person to road trip with as well! Good times indeed!

Doesn't she look so pretty and happy?!
I miss her so much right now! This is the 4th summer I have spent away from her... which means it is the 4th birthday I will have to celebrate without her. Sucky!
I am so lucky to have a best friend like Kandace. I really am. Summers are not the same without her. Lately I have been in conversations with other women about best friends and I have come to realize how having friends like Kandace are really rare. I don't know what I would do if I didn't have her.
I love that we have each others backs. I love that no matter what, she is always in my corner if I need her... and is always down for a good dance party! hahaha
She looked so awesome in her grad pictures today... and I could tell that it was such a fun day! I know she worked so hard to get to where she is today and I'm so proud of her! She did it!!!
Anyways... I miss you Kandace! I'm glad you are my bestie.
CONGRATULATIONS!!! You are going to be the BEST social worker out there! I know there are people who need you and will need to have such an amazing person like yourself in their lives! I know I do!
Kandace you are the bestest bestie a girl could ever ask for! I'm sooooooooo sooooooo sorry I wasn't able to make it to your big day. I can't wait to hear about it all!!!!
Ok... that's all. Good night!

Summer so far... and a lil shout out to Kandace!

Well first off... here is a shout out to my bestie KANDACE!!! Today she is graduating from University and I am soooo SO proud of her! I am really sad I couldn't be there for her big day. She worked so hard and deserves to enjoy this moment! I love you Kandace and I am so proud of you today!!! You did it... you GRADUATED!!!

What a busy summer we are having down here in Dallas Texas... so very very busy!
Jarom is continuing to sell tons and tons each day and we could not be more proud of him! He is such a good provider!
Vienna and I keep ourselves busy with... pool time, friends, walks, dancing, reading, games... and all sorts of fun things. I'm so grateful to have her as my baby bestie!
The last few weeks have been busy... but good... mostly. For memorial day weekend we had fun at bbq's a pool parties. Sadly though, Vienna got heat exhaustion and we spent a few days inside and taking lots of naps. But she is back to her fun self and life is all good again.
This past weekend was Kevin and Jaime Monson's wedding and reception. They make the cutest couple and we are so happy for them! Last thursday morning Jarom and Coby took Kevin and some other boys paint balling for Kevin's Bachelor party... I wish I had pics to post of it... but sadly I don't. But I have seen some and it looks like they had a lot of fun!

Also on friday it was Phil's 25th birthday so we thought we should do something special for him. I made him his favourite German Chocolate cupcakes with coconut pecan icing. We threw him a lil pool party at Coby and Typh's and had some pizza. The boys had fun playing night water basketball and of course Jarom and Phil had to have one NHL 2010 hockey terny on the x-box. For Phil's b-day present Jarom took him to 7 flags the next night. They had loads of fun together and I know it was nice for them to just be goofy and silly together. They are not just cousins, they are best friends too, which is great.
Today I successfully put pigtails in Vienna's hair and it looks soooo cute! I'll have to post some pics of it later on. We also bought her a walker toy... which she is obsessed with! It is so funny watching her walk around our house with it. She is getting some speed too! She makes me laugh!
Well I better run... Vienna should be up for her nap now and it is time to go for a walk.
I would be lying to say I am not extremely blessed. I love my life... although at times it is trying... I am very blessed to have the husband that I love more than anything on this earth and a daughter who I could not love more each and every day!
Well until next time...
