Buon compleanno, Tessa! :)

As I am sick in bed...what better to do then write a an early birthday blog dedicated to my best, Tessa Lynn! Tessa is someone that has quickly become a sister/best friend to me. Through crazy times, tears, late nights, death, breakups, marriage, new relationships, moving everywhere...we've really been through it all. I have said to many people over the past few months...it's amazing how someone can be an ocean away ...6 hour time difference...and still I talk her more than I talk to some close by or a few hours away :). This is the friend who I can call at 4 AM, word vomit to about anything...and I know she will love me, support me, challenge me in ways that a friend always should. Not only am I thankful for our great conversation and support...but can I just explain to the world how I have never laughed harder with anyone in my life than with this girl.

From "The Hill", to getting stuck in a freezer during a tornado (can't forget Barry on that one :), to cheerleading and mall trips...we can do anything together and just be happy little clams! To me, these are the best kinds of friendships. The ones where you make all of the effort in the world to make sure you talk and spend time together...but when you are together the time spent is just so easy :). I'm pretty sure everyone that I meet, I say "my best friend lives in Italy"!!! Not only because I think it's awesome...but because I am so proud too! This is the girl who has taught me to follow my heart no matter what anyone else says :) I am going to miss celebrating with you this weekend but hope that you have sooooooo much fun :) "I'M SO HAPPY FOR YOU...BUT I HATE IT"...LOL..<3
