20 tHiNgS i LoVe AbOuT mY bEsT fRiEnD!!!
1. She is the most obedient woman I know and has set an incredible example for me.
2. She is beautiful inside and out.
3. She is not only my best friend, but a part of my family.
4. I love how her husband is just as supportive as she is.
5. She is always there not just for me, but for ANYONE in my family. She and Derek drove from California to Utah as soon as she found out about Wes' passing.
6. I love her hair in the morning. It's just as bad as mine if not worse.
7. I love how her family is my family.
8. She is also a hard core LA fan...GO LAKERS AND DODGERS!!!
9. When we were younger she would always lie on the couch across from either Curtis or Wes and "gaze" at them. They would catch her doing it and say, "Mandi, STOP GAZING!" LOL
10. She is very compassionate and understanding.
11. She is EXTREMELY thoughtful!
12. She is an incredible stylist and she is very passionate about her career.
13. I love how we had the SAME routine for the 4th of July for like 20 years and it never got old.
14. When we were teenagers we use to talk about our lives and how I was going to marry Sam and she would marry Wes and that way we could be sisters forever.
15. My mom use to babysit Mandi and Sam and Dirty Dancing was our favorite movie to watch.
16. When she would come over when we were about 2 and 4 we would swim in the horse trough and then come inside and eat spagetti.
17. My favorite New Years was when we hung out with "the boys" and broke into the jr. high and played basketball until like 4 in the morning, but first Curtis did doughnuts in the dirt lot next to the school and he got pulled over. HAHA
18. Curtis was getting his hair cut and Mandi and I were in the Amigo listening to Savage Garden and eating ice cream from the Acton Market and Mandi dropped her ice cream on the carpet of Curtis' car.
19. When I told her I was getting a divorce, she showed me NOTHING but love and support and understanding.
20. Mandi, I have no doubt that we were best friends before we came to Earth and I know we will be friends even after this life. You are without a doubt the most amazing woman I know. I love you and am so blessed to have you as MY BEST FRIEND!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
