We've Come A Long Way
I've been feeling pretty choked up lately. On Monday I found out that this was the last week (and possibly the last time) I'd be able to spend my time with my friends here in Cedar. Instead of having one more week, they're moving out Friday evening. I realize I talk about them a lot. And I do. I'm sorry if you're sick of hearing about them. They're kind of a big deal to me.
For those of you who don't know, we go way back. Back to when I was in 3rd grade back. I would write in my journal about how excited felt b/c I was going to hang out with them after school nearly everyday. I don't remember much of those days, but I know they were good. Back when my dad's mom, my grandma Laurie still lived on 265 South. They lived a very short distance across the street. With us being that young, ya it was hard to tell the two apart. They are identical twins, after all. They first moved away that end of the school year and I didn't think much of it, although I was sad to see them go.
-It never crossed my mind that we would meet up again ten years later and become best friends.
It was the beginning of my senior year at Cedar High, for them their junior year. I remember I was sitting in Mrs. Heaton's room one day after school and realization came to me that Harmony was sitting there too. I didn't recognize her at first, but I knew I'd seen her somewhere. We all happened to have the same psychology class and I also sat next to Melody. I was basically like hey guess who I am? And she remembered! I was a little overwhelmed with joy. Harm and I caught up and went after school nearly everyday to get some extra help for our math class, which happened to be Algebra 2. :/ After that exhausting experience, we'd go to Costa Vida and get burritos then just hang at my place til she had to go home. And my taxi service started there! Come March, they moved away again. :/
That following summer I went out on a limb and drove all the way to Panaca to visit!

We had some good times. Like when we went to ze spring and hung out. (See above). The town there is way beyond small. Kind of have to get creative for entertainment. Alamo has a hot spring (another town an hour away) that we went to occasionally. Caliente (15 minutes away) doesn't have too much, but we did go to J.J's one time for lunch. Then there was that one time we rode a dinosaur.

About a year and a couple months later passed. They graduated from Lincoln County High and I was starting my freshman year of college. I did go visit again whenever I could. This last August is when they moved back here in Cedar. Honestly, it was a complete shock to me. But I could not have been more excited. :) So began the relationship up until now. It was about the end of this last August when they came. The day they moved in I was hanging out with my gram gram in Minersville, helping her do a show. I spent about three days over there and come the end of the third day, I just remembered driving back to Cedar as quick as was allowed. Didn't even stop by my house when I got there. I just went straight to theirs. :) (flashback memories run through my mind).

| My Birthday- why so serious? |
My sophomore year of college really flew by. I find it hard to believe that 10 months have passed since then. These past few months have definitely been the happiest of my life up until this point. I've never had any "real best friends", at least that's how I feel. There definitely have been those few good ones. With these two I seriously have done everything with. I have been taught so many good things from having them. I hope they have learned something good from me too. As hard as it is to see them go back to Panaca, I just keep reminding myself to smile because it happened at all. They are going to do the most amazing work that can possibly be done in this life, and that is saving the souls of men. To preach the good word. And I could not be more proud of them. I hope they know that.
Thanks you two again for everything! I Love you always. <3 <3 <3 We've had so many good times.
