The Tales of the Little Pigg: Best Friends

Last night inspired me to take a little time to tell you about my very special best friends:

This blog is dedicated to my bestie that moved to New York and I got to see last night for the first time in 2 months. I literally could not wait to drive to Bham yesterday to see her. I was like jumping up and down at work. I left at the first possible moment and ran home to change clothes and meet Suz. We drove to Birmingham to meet Mal at P.F. Chang's (one of my very favorite places to eat) and arrived around 7:00. When we got there it was raining but we hugged it out in the parking lot anyway.
Dinner was amazing, mostly due to the fact that we got to catch up on what had been going on in each other's lives. Mal has always been that person that I call when I have problems or when something new is happening in my life so I was glad to finally be able to bring her up to date on everything. I loved hearing all of her wonderful New York stories.

I am sad that I no longer get to experience life with Mal living right next door. She is one of the few people in this world that will just sit and spend quality time with me. Our target runs were epic and we always justified each other buying things that we did not need. To this day we send each other pictures of stores we wish we could go in with each other. She has the ability to pick out items in stores that I will love and tell me that I should buy them, even when I try to surprise her I can't. She is one of the most Godly women I have ever met and I admire her ability to fully trust in the plan the Lord has for her, because that is something I struggle with. She amazes me daily and I couldn't be more proud of her if I tried. Mal has the ability to find out how to make the most of the time that she spends with people and always makes an effort to stay in contact, which is good because I am pretty bad at it but trying to get better. She is my encourager and I could not be more thankful that I have her as a best friend. The world is lucky she is in it! Lurv you Shriley!
The photos aren't exactly in the right order, but I can't make them fix. 1 photo from every year of our friendship.
