Elizabeth and Janine have been best friends since the summer before freshman year in high school. Elizabeth was always the voice of reason and the little angel on Janine's shoulder guiding her to make good decisions. Sometimes the little devil on Janine's shoulder would win and we would find ourselves lost in Long Beach trying to learn how to put gasoline in a car for the first time ever. How do we get the hose thing off the thing to put into the car. Where does it go?? Her husband Blake always helped us out. Thanks Blake. The Prodigy's song Breathe is near and dear their hearts. They would play that song and drive 100 mph to school every morning.

College happened and several years ago Janine and Tiffany found out they lived and worked in Temecula. So they re-connected and it turns out Tiffany married Ryan Ostronic, a neighbor that Janine used to walk to the school bus stop with during Jr. High and High School.
