A Shoutout To My Provo Friends!

Saturday I had the privilege of attending a bachelorette party for my friend Sheri. I was good friends with Sheri when I lived in Orem/Provo. I got to some of my best girlfriends from when I lived down there (Sheri, Megan, Natalie and Amy - love you all!) and it was SO much fun to catch up and reminisce. After the party, I had to drive up to Salt Lake to meet some of my other girlfriends for dinner. That's sort of a drive, so I had time to think back on all the friends I have had over the years....



Ken and Chris (not pictured)




I've been friends with this kid for a LONG time. I don't like this picture of him cause he looks like a d-bag. But Ken is actually a really good friend. He's very blunt and lets you know how it is. He is very opinionated and I didn't like him at first for his reason but he slowly grew on me. I can't find a picture on computer of Chris. I know I have a physical picture but I don't know if he wants that shown... ha ha ha. Chris's nickname is Big Daddy Yum Yum. He gets a lot of girls but won't admit it. Just give it up Chris! Seriously!





Bekah
Bekah was really funny and has a lot of sass to her! Bekah wasn't a member of the church but she never tried to get me to drink or do things that I didn't want to do. We've lost touch but I heard that she had a baby - Congratulations!




(L -R) Amy, Megan, Natalie, Me and Sheri




I know that I am going to get some flack for this picture... but hey - it's the only one I could find of ALL of us together! I absolutely adore these girls. They made everything SO fun! Amy - she is such a sweetheart. Amy knows how to have fun! Megan - oh man, the trouble I could get into with this one! I love how she can just be herself and put it all out there. Natalie - Someone called her Pebbles when they saw her in the picture... ha! Natalie was always laughing and having a great time. She was (and still is) so funny! Sheri - If I had to pick one of the classiest girls out of all the friends I've had, it's Sheri. She is so sweet and so nice! She taught me how to make fun of Cam. Ha!

Cam


I think this picture truly depicts the friendship that Cam and I had! Many people said that we were like an old married couple - always arguing! But Cam and I had a great friendship. He was one of the only guy friends I had that I could really trust and talk to. Many people at church thought we were dating because we would always be around each other at church or activities... but quite the opposite!

Ross


Saucy Rossy. How I miss him! This kid is hands down the funniest guy I know. Ross was really easy to talk to and I felt really comfortable around him. He had this thing known as the "Ross Clap". Ross can clap REALLY loud. I found this out during the 2007 NBA finals when the Spurs (Ross's favorite NBA team) won. I hate the Spurs. And I hated that clap. But now when I try to clap really loud for the Jazz, I try to think of the Ross Clap.




Billy (aka Will, William)

When you'd get Billy, Ross and Cam together, you know you'd have a good time! Billy was a really funny guy. I think one of my favorite Billy moments is when some new girls came by his condo to give him cookies (they had gone thru the ward directory and picked out the cutest guys to give cookies to) and I was there. The girls asked Billy if he and I were dating... and before Billy could respond, I said "He wishes!"... I laughed, the girls laughed, Billy did not laugh. Billy always had the best BBQ's and hosted the best Superbowl games.

Ashley, Leah, Emily and me

I met these girls when I moved into Branbury my final year at UVU. Wow - if I only knew what I was in for! Ashley (Whenever I would talk to about her, I would call her Featherbone. Her last name is Featherstone and I had two roommates with the name of Ashley spring semester) - this girls is GORGEOUS! She is such a talented dancer too. Ashley is so sweet! Leah - oh goodness. Leah. She is one of those people that just emanates FUN! When you are around her, you know you're going to have a good time! Leah and I went through a lot in the eight months living together but I will always love this girl! We helped each other see a lot of truths. Emily - HA! This girl is just so funny. Emily is very blunt and you know where you stand with her! She's a great friend and a great listener when you just need to vent.

Jared, Eric and Timmy (not pictured)

The first time I ever hung out with Jared and Eric, I knew I was in for a good time. These guys are hilarious! Eric is really funny and really loud. Eric put me a in a headlock at a Jazz game one time. All because I told him he had a big head. Ha ha ha ha. Jared is a really really good guy. He's honest but know how to put things in the right light. I can't wait to hang out with this kid all the time in California! Timmy (not pictured) rubbed my feet by force one time. If you know me, I hate feet. Timmy also told me when I had the flu, that I should eat candy, it would make me feel better. False. It did not make me feel better. Timmy is a total Rico Suave. Just ask his harem.

To all my Provo friends I've had through out the years.... I have enjoyed all the memories and fun times!! I can't believe it's been two years since I have graduated.... bananas.... but school and Orem/Provo would have been a lot less fun without you all! Love you.
