Bridesmaids
Say hello to my 3 beautiful bridesmaids (no special order). Drum roll please....Deannie! Deannie and I met years ago through friends of friends. We lost touch for a while during some strange times and reconnected a little over three years ago when I was single and going through a change in my life. She has been a blessing in my life since then. She is not only a friend but a big sister too. Deannie is a pillar of strength to me and a wonderful role model. She's kind, caring, emotional, fun, honest, and a great cook too. Her laugh can make an entire room glow. She is my best friend & I love her.
Lizzy! Elizabeth and I have been friends for most of 13 years. There were a few "breaks" in there where we had a difference in opinion. That is the result of two 17 year girls being brutally honest with each other - or in other words -- being "best friends forever." Now, at almost 30 years old, we still talk all the time, remain brutally honest with each other, visit regularly (Liz lives in Texas) and make fun of each other -- like old times. We're defiantly opposites in a lot of way but we still love each other. I guess in that way we're almost more like sisters. Elizabeth knows my biggest secrets. She is my vault. She has known me since before I had my first boyfriend and it's so great to have her there to watch me marry my very last boyfriend!
Holly! Holly...Holly...Holly! I met Holly in a strip club on my 23rd birthday; which, is not only really fun to say but is also one of the best things that ever happened to me. Holly was invited to my 23rd birthday bash at the local strip club by a mutual friend and she and I have been in love ever since. Holly is the smartest person I've ever met in my life. She is calm, honest, sensitive, non-judgmental, a math wiz, a wonderful mother, and my best friend. We have been through so much in the last 5 years. SO MUCH. Holly has been the lucky/unlucky friend with front row seats during my ups and downs. She's put up with everything from 4am calls about bad boyfriends to recent 6pm diamond ring freak outs! For that reason she is my maid of honor (really..it's "matron of honor", since she's married, but she thinks that's granny....so I'll wait to use that in the published wedding program).
I love love love love all these girls in a special way and I'm SO THRILLED to have them stand behind me in my wedding!!!
