It was the early days way back. It was probably about 19 years ago and I was starting a new school my freshman year. Standing there totally scared shitless this girl walks up to me and says HEY ! What’s your name ? So I replied and she literally said we are best friends now and I’m going to get you through this school. From that day forward through our life events , the laughs the tears the “you stupid bitch” all of she never left my side, ever. This girl has literally held me and prayed over me. There is no doubt in my mind that she wouldn’t take a bullet for me. It’s always been you keep me safe, I keep you wild with Alyssa. She’s always kept me wild but I’ve always protected her and kept her safe like a sister. Because she’s my sister, my soul sister .

I met Julie aka granny through sports with our kids. We clicked and she got it 🩷 she truly is my ride or die! This is my “other mom” and what I mean by that is …. She too keeps me on my toes 😂 from the wild nights out, to our morning coffee dates and little shopping trips here and there I wouldn’t have made it through my darkest of days. To all the phone calls I miss, the days I’m laid up pouting on the couch this one swoops in and puts her foot in there. She understands me, and loves not just Anthony and I but our kids and that means the world to us! You’ve never singled my kids out and have made sure they’ve felt loved when I as a mom just wasn’t getting it right . I’ll never be more thankful for a friend like you. If you’re reading this , I love you most🩷

Well I want to go into detail of how I met Miranda but we will just keep that to ourselves 😂 you can say our kids introduced us to each other ! Miranda is who I go to when I’m really sad and depressed because there nothing like a date with Miranda 🩷 we’ve laughed together and cried together and shes literally seen me at my worst and never gave up on our friendship. Miranda holds a huge spot in my heart that no one does and I’m so thankful for her. I remember a couple of years ago she called me. It was random. It had been a while but that day I was losing my marbles in my office and I had debated walking out that day and my phone rang , I don’t answer for anyone ever but I did this day and literally it was Randa bringing me coffee on her BIRTHDAY! That is the kind of person she is and forever and ever I’ll treasure that moment because she had no clue how much I needed that coffee and just to see a comforting face to get me through my moment ! Oh and let’s not forget to recognize her as NURSE RANDA because I single handedly sat back and watched this woman go through school and watched her struggle to pass her state exams all while working and owning a business🙌🏻 and I thought I was tough …. Miranda if you ever read this , thank you for being you. Always.

I met Nicole on a wild night! I won’t lie, I looked at Anthony and said that girl is beautiful and I want to be her friend and from then on it was history. Nicole brings so much joy to my life it’s unbelievable! From the camping trips, the fun nights out and the belly laughs along with the tears she is my lucky find and there is no one like her.Nicole can light up a room from a mile away with her smile or her middle finger and that depends on you 😂🤷🏻‍♀️ Nicole came into my life at a rough time but took me out of a dark hole and never judged me for being who I am. Nicole you are one of a kind and if you’re reading this thank you 🩷

Meet Margaret, this is Anthony’s best friend of nearly 30 years! When we were choosing our wedding party Anthony made it known that she was going to be his best girl because she holds so much love for her. From the time I met Margaret we rubbed our boobs together and have been tight ever since. She’s a girls girl but she is one of the guys! Anthony and Margaret have also worked together 21 of their 30 years and I think it’s so special. They are hilarious together and have a friendship that’s forever! We LOVE Marge! (she’s gonna kill me) 🙃

This is Mike, my New Yorker! I met Mike a couple of years ago when he came to me to buy a home. From the time we’ve known Mike he has been one of the greatest friends to us. It has never mattered the time of day or night with Mike, if we called he is here. The laughs are endless with this guy and we never forget to have a good time when Mike is around . Mike has since moved away from us and met the love of his life also, Stacy. We adore you both and you cannot forget my man Wyatt, that boy is just our whole hearts. I guess what I am trying to say here is Mike is family now and we love that guy!

This is Cameron “Cam”! I literally hated this man for probably way too long because he married my soul mate lmao but what a better way to introduce him as literally our best friend. Cameron is one of a kind.I enjoy his intelligence which you might find weird but the man is smart. Cameron is the “extra mile” guy. When we call he’s there.If we can’t fix it, Cameron probably could. The craziest memories I have of my young adulthood are with Cameron! There is always an “you remember that one time” 😂 but really man remember when you and ole natterbug hit 80 in my Nissan and ✌🏻hit a raccoon ✌🏻 on the train tracks … my shit is still busted 6 years later 😂 and I refuse to fix it because I remembered how pissed I was 🙃 anyways …. We are literally so thankful for you and lyssi and the kids and we are so proud of what yall have built!

We havnt know Cameron long because he’s married to that girl up top named Nicole 😘 Cameron is quiet but for some odd reason through all of our group chaos he just fits right in there. We knew Cameron and Nicole were special when we all just clicked.similar stories.Cameron and Nicole live 21/2 hours away from us but it’s never stopped either of them from being here. Cameron is literally the hardest working guy around and especially when it comes to his family and that’s why Anthony and him are tight. Cameron we are so thankful that you have been such a good friend in such a short amount of time !
