my forever friends.

i have so many lovely friends and they each have a unique, important place in my heart.
but some of my friends are ones i just know will be there forever. it's like we don't even have a choice anymore. we're friends forever. 
we're actually less friends and more sisters. we share our real siblings and parents, depending on whose state we're in. 
two of my life friends are brianna and elise. i haven't seen them in a while and since i miss them i thought i'd share them with you.


brianna

brianna has some great sass. i love that she will tell you exactly what she's thinking always. and the sass just makes it funnier!

bri's a princess. i love it. she's slightly (or really) high maintenance and she owns it.

brianna is beautiful! not why we're friends, but it's true!
and she's adventurous. all these pictures are from when she was studying abroad in france spring semester.

she can't eat things either. in europe her diet was different. but here she has more allergies than i do and she is the best at commiserating with me over what we want to eat but can't.

one of the things i love most about bri is the way she loves. she is hardcore and all in. when brianna loves you, you're good to go. and bri and i are attached at the heart. our emotions are on the same roller coaster and that is so comforting.

elise

elise is basically a chameleon. a california girl
when she's here. but she's an idaho girl when she's there! i love how well she blends into wherever she is!

elise is outdoorsy. she encourages me to hike and do other things i wouldn't normally do. like go swimming. and climb through caves?

elise is my other half. she's always logical, calm and relaxed, which is typically the opposite of me. and she is also always right next to me.

elise is so fun. she'll play little kid games at little kid parties and enjoy it.

elise is a hero. she's in the air force. she gets up early to learn how to make a bed aaaand she works out multiple times a day. and she's going to save lives on airplanes when she grows up.

elise is a sleeper. she will literally fall asleep anywhere. in heritage. at the beach. in class. under her bed. in the botanical gardens in washington dc.

i love my friends. they're forever and i'm so thankful for them!
