Day 2 - Photo Challenge

Day 2: Post a picture of you and the person you have been closest to the longest


This is me and Kira circa 2006. Aside from always looking good, we've put our friendship through everything and we've come out still great friends! We met in 6th grade and immediately realized we had tons of fun together. Our birthdays are one day apart so we have celebrated 12 birthdays together! That's half our lives! A couple weekends ago we celebrated turning 24 together surrounded by our ever-changing but always mutual circle of friends. I chose Kira for today's photo, although I have several friends whom I have known equally as long and some longer, because Kira and my friendship has been the most consistent over the 12 years we have known each other. Some friends come and go, some you lose touch with and then reconnect with but Kira and I have always been buddies since the day we met! Not always getting along, but always eventually remembering why we were friends to begin with and sticking together through it all. Our mutual interests have gone from Nsync and liking the same boys in middle school to photography and, I must admit, an occasional nostalgic Nsync song-fest and other good music. Love you Kira!!!

  1. Awww! I am extremely touched, and not least of all that you managed to find an extremely stunning photo of both of us. I really do need to dig up that sweater vest and bring it back into fashion.

    But, in seriousness, you're right. I've had friends that I've known longer, but I'd be hard pressed to find someone else I can count on quite as well to be a good friend when I need. Or, to text me when Savage Garden is playing at a store (which they were at King Soopers the other day too, by the way, and Connor didn't understand why I got excited. Boys.)

    Anyway, consider my day made. I love you too Jennie!
