Friends

I went to Synchronized Skating World Championships this weekend with my friends (another post on that coming soon), we all had a great time and I realized something this weekend and I thought I'd share!

I have been friends with these girls since high school, when we all skated together on a synchro team.  I never realized when I met them 10 years ago that we would be traveling, growing up, and sticking with each other throughout our lives, but now I cannot imagine my life without them!  We all had quite the 2009 (and 2010 so far): Angie and Alyssa got married, Amy moved in with her bf, Emily had her second baby (Lydia so cute!) and got an awesome new job that she loves, Meg is kicking butt as an athletic trainer and grad student and she got a puppy, and I am working my way through law school and one of my good friends won an Olympic gold medal!  We had several "grown up" conversations about jobs and husbands and everything in between during this trip and it made me realize that these girls are the people I lean on for help in all facets of my life and I know that they will be there for me, no matter what, for the rest of my life.  I am really grateful to have such great friends, love you girls!  I couldn't complete this post without talking about the moms we had on our trip...

I love how they still call us the kids/girls even though we are all in our mid-20s, half are married, and one has two kids!  Thanks for being there for all your "kids"! [and putting up with us posing you in pictures]
