I feel very lucky that I'm still able to keep in touch with three of my best friends from high school. To say that we were silly growing up would be a major understatement. For the most part, we were very "good kids," and our mischievous behavior consisted of taking weird pictures at Wal-Mart or driving through Taco Bell and ordering hamburgers. Oh yes, we actually thought we were funny.
Anyway, the four of us came together last weekend after 9 years of high school. We met at the Mall of America in Minneapolis, and we had a blast. (I've never shopped so much in my life.) It's funny to realize how much (and how little) we've changed. We still know each others little quirks, and unfortunately, we still think we are WAY funnier than we actually are. :)
Overall, I must say that I really enjoyed myself with the girls. We're all very different and have various views on politics, religion, etc. But on that same note, we've grown together, too.
We have the news producer who has her life completely organized and shines at everything she does.
We have the stay-at-home mom who is a lot smarter and talented than she'll give herself credit for (even if she lacks the motivation).
We have the dreamer who has yet to fully discover her passion in life, but we all know she'll find a way.
And then there's me. I analyze things too much and can be a little rough around the edges, but the best thing is that these girls take me for who I am. We all do. It's great to have a good group of girlfriends...even if they do live hundreds of miles away.

I already miss you guys a lot.
Awww...you make me miss MY crazy girlfriends!
I, too, love that picture.
Ok, I'm sure you didn't mean that you guys spent 9 years in high school. I'm guessing you meant after being out of high school for the past 9 years. On the other hand, I've seen that one video and heard about some of your exploits so who knows how crazy you guys were!
