Everyone has a best friend during each stage of their life, but only a select few have the same one.

I can honestly that this quote applies to me 100% and that I have been lucky enough to grow up with the absolute best friends. No matter how drastically life changes for us; whether it's dealt with moving, or marriage, or going to different schools, or whatever else it may be I know I can

always call them my best friends.

I can't picture my life without her. She's been the one I've been inseperable with for years and years and I'm okay that she is now married and has replaced me with her hubby;) I will never forget the thousands of sleepovers we had and the millions of memories I've created with her. She is an amazing example to me and is so hardworking. I can't even think of a time that I've ever beat her on any assignment we have ever had. haha. I know that if I need her, I can text/call her up and she will always be there to listen. I'm so happy that she is happy. Amrie Brooke Stapley
She is probably one of the funniest people you will ever meet. NEVER a dul moment when you are with Amrie. haha. It's hard to imagine life without her, because then life would be so dang boring. She brings the goofy side out of you, and makes you realize that you shouldn't care what others have to say about you. She is more than comfortable in her own skin, and that mentally spreads when you are around her. She is an amazing athlete and is very competitive. I loved the times I got to play with her, and having her as my setter. She gave me the confidence I needed and is always very supportive. I love the times I spend with her without a doubt.

Then there's...
Coach Jaime

No lie, she is THE funniest person I have ever met in my life. You are never bored when you are with Coach, and I am usually crying from laughing so hard or nearly peeing my pants from the stuff she says. She is someone I look up to so much, and she has helped me alot. Like, alot alot. I thank her for the player I have become. For the effort she has put in to help me grow as a player, and all simple things she has said to me to make my skills become so much stronger. I miss her as my coach more than anything and am grateful for the years I had her expertise to guide me. But I am especially grateful for the friendship that grew over those years.

These girls will forever be important to me.
