I miss my friends, back home, so much!!!!!!!
Some of these I have known since I was 4....others since Jr. High....others college...and others since Chad started the Game Warden Academy.
I am truly blessed and wish they could've made this move with me! Friends just make life easier!
I've been away from most of my friends for 5 years now (since I left in 04 for SFA)....even though we may not see each other every day, or every month....we remain in contact and it's as though distance is not a factor.
It means so much to me when these people text me, or send me an email....I love these guys and wouldn't trade them for the world!
SO here's a shout out to some of my most favoritest people of all times!
Jenny Lee
Jordy Looney
Lauren Brint
Cody McCoy
Sharon Bankhead
April Ward
Taran Purselley
Paige Reynolds
Joy Cumby
Kathleen Cleaveland
Ty Bankhead
Trent Bankhead
Trey Bankhead
These people have seen it all.....laughter & tears; good times & bad times; triumphs and let downs. Each possess a different characteristic that I love so much!
Jenny Lee.....my #1...the apple of my eye...and the apple of my family's eye. We have been away from each other for so long...and even though our lives have gone different directions and I haven't seen here in 3 years....this girl will always have my heart! Friends til the end!
Jordy Looney...my #2 man (after Chad of course)! He is a true example of a friend. Always loving, always caring, and always thoughtful.
Lauren Brint...my most favorite conversationist! When we talk it's always for hours!!!! She makes me laugh...she makes me mad (when she doesn't listen to me.....haha!)...she makes me smile (for all that she has accomplished); I am so proud of this girl! I try to never make it home without a dinner date with her! <3 this girl so much!
Cody McCoy...the most handsome pick ever for my favorite conversationist, Lauren! When did this start....5th grade?!?!? Haha....and I was there! I love this boy so much! He always surprises me with a message that just warms my heart. Thoughtfulness reflections about my dad...consistent 'how are you doing in the West'; he just makes my day! &...again... a trip to Texarkana just isn't complete without seeing his cute face!
Sharon Bankhead "Banky"....my mother away from mother....my home away from home...my love...life...laughter...and tears! I love this lady so much (am crying now just thinking about it!)...she lifts me up, gives me strength, encourages me, and consistently pushes me out of my box...haha! This lady and her family have changed my life!
April Ward...my sister...my friend...my baby girl's momma (Presley Brooke); haha. I couldn't be more thankful for such a great sister-in-law. Living with her while Chad was away (in the Academy) was such an experience! One that I will forever remember. =) She always listens...but doesn't always do (READ THAT BOOK......haha)! I am so thankful for her!!!!!
Taran Purselley...my savior from SFA! WOW....what would I have done without this girl! It was such a miracle and blessing that we met.....when I needed a friend the most! We were there for each other in good times and in bad....we had lots of fun with late night trips to Wal-Mart and driving around Nac dancing in the car (HAHA)! I will forever cherish our memories...and wish we could go back so bad! You are the starting point of why Chad & I met. I am so proud of you and love you so much!
Paige Reynolds...wow...Paige! Lunch dates to LaCarreta w/ a drink after class. Long nights of studying with notes beyond measure. Boy talks and girl talks. Psycho teachers (what was that class ?!?!). So many fun times together!!!
Joy Cumby...a friend...and such an inspiration. Lifted me up...cried with me....listened to my complaints...a true JOY sent to me from Heaven!
Kathleen Cleaveland...a mother, a guider, & a teacher to me! Always gave me words of advice and lend a listening ear. Kleenex and lotion were always on hand! 1 of the reasons I made it so long at BAE!
Ty....my #1 Bankhead boy! Always makes me laugh...always makes me smile. Lunch dates while Chad was away...walking away at J-Tree (haha...YOUR FAULT!)...causing arguments...and cool scars! I miss this boy!!!!! My brother from another mother!
Trent...my Bankhead boy that just doesn't always love me! Deep down he knows its true....but he just loves to argue! He makes me laugh...he makes me smile...he hits too hard...and he always fights....this is why I love him! HAHA!
Trey...the level headed one of the bunch! Such a great guy, such a good friend....a blast to hang out with.....so glad we are friends!
There are many others who I just can't imagine my life without (Matt & Wendy Ottaberry....Dewayne & Emily Noble...Patrick Cowan)
Such great friends....a tribute to you....to come!
