Things this year have been great. I'm so glad to be starting this year in this great church with awesome friends like you by my side helping me through. We still have our weekly talks in the sanctuary, which I miss when we don't have them. You are just one amazing chic and I can't wait for all the many more memories we are going to have. And we really do have to sing together in church still. You have such an amazing voice... let people hear the gift that God has given you to share. Thanks for being my friend and for always listening to me. You have always been there for me when I needed you, especially in the beginning when no one else was. I'll always remember that. I pray that our friendship grows as the years go on. Things have been so different since you left. There is now no one to talk to before services. No one I can share a secret smile with in service. No one to keep me company on Sunday nights. No one to make me laugh and smile. I was davasted when you said that you were leaving. I had no clue what I would do without you. But I took comfort in knowing that you were only 5 mintues away. We had some good times. Like the girls sleepover. I had the greatest time hanging with you and driving you. We talked a lot and I'm grateful for that. And then when you came pants shopping with me. Oh man! That was hilarious... some of the things I tried on!! I still don't think it was fair that you and my mom got to laugh at me. But we still had fun. But then you told me that you were moving to Pennsylvania!! That is so far away. What am I gonna do now? I'll just have to drive to come kidnap you so you can visit with us. And dude you'll so have to help me when (if that is) I get surgery. (btw, wasn't it you who started me saying "dude"? lol.) Never forget us Ali. Always remember the lovely jokes we all had... random... captain crunch!... "eur-o-pean"... "russian"... and what cheese isn't yours! I'll miss you dearly but I know God has so many plans for your life and with the lovely talents He has given you. Because you are amazing... keep singing for the Lord sweetie. Love ya!

You are such an amazing friend and I don't know what I would have done without you when I first came here. You made me feel welcomed and showed me how things go. We got along real fast and became friends. That is something that is very rare for me. You would let me vent to you about how weird things felt and how left out I felt in the beginning. When I missed my old church and old friends you reminded me that I had to trust God and that He had a plan. You understood me so well in the very beginning and you knew exactly what to say. Something no one else ever did or tried to do. You were the first real friend I had here at Calvary and you're someone I shall never forget.
We had so much fun when you came over my house that one time. We had such nice talks together that day. And oh man hiding the candy was great right?? I'll never forget that and how much fun that was. Then there was convention. Rooming with you and Katie was fun. =) And then there was the time I slept over so I could do your hair for spirit week. That was fun too!! For Christmas you made me that lovely pillow that all my friends ask about. And I tell them my friend Ali made it for me. =) And you were greatly missed when you went away. Believe me, we were all glad when you came back!!!
