It's not everyday you can say you've known someone since you were born. But with this girl...its absolutely a true story. Our mamas were friends while we were both still "in the oven" and then we joined the outside world just 15 days apart. {She's the older one. Which is always how we explained why she is so much taller than me. ;)} Many a day we roamed barefooted and happy, picking blackberries and playing pretend for hours on end. We learned how to be ambidextrous. We wore matching clothes. Did advanced over the top "we're so smart" school projects. We had so many joint birthday parties. Basically we spent all our wee babe days inseparably together as the best of besties.
I was her Ally and she was my Bee. :)
Life has taken us down separate paths since she moved away in 5th grade {breaking both of our hearts beyond explanation.} But with all this newfangled social media these days, we've been able to keep up with each other as best as possible. And now that we're all grown up, oh-so-old, and graduating...it made my day to know that she wanted me to take her senior pictures. What a shweet way to have a reunion!
She's just as awesome and intense and brilliant as always. What's on her agenda? Nothing much...besides the fact that she's going to be attending "Ole Miss" and joining the Navy. Shyeah. I'm seriously so proud of her!
And myyyyy goodness.....the part of the story I don't have to let you in on is that my little BFF from the days of yore grew up to be like sooo crazy gorgeous.
You can clearly see that for yourself. :)
Baaaaaaileeeeyyyy. I love you so much and can't wait to see all the big grand things you're bound to do in the future. Thank you thank you thank you for giving me the honor of taking your pictures. I had a blast. And you rocked the day, my friend. :)
