Fabuolous Friend Friday...onnn Saturday- JJ

I know, I know...it's not Friday. buuut last Friday I missed it and I didn't have time last night, sooo I'm doing a fabulous friend Friday post today. Saturday.

Today, I think I'll talk about my dear friend JJ. Aka. Jess. Aka. Jessica. :)

I wish I could include her picture but I'm in MD and it's not seeming to work on this computer...

I have known JJ for about 4ish years I guess you could say. I THINK we met when I was a freshie in college and she was a junior. We weren't really friends though until a couple years ago. (before that we were really only friends by association)

We got to be closer when I was a junior and somehow we really just clicked.
She is the type of person you always just feel comfortable around...even if you don't really know her. She has a special way of connecting with people that I find pretty awesome.
We're both pretty introverted people at heart. AND we are both only children. (I mean I don't know many really...so it's cool)

I love joking around and laughing with her.
but, I love that we can also talk about serious things and confide in each other. We've had many a heart to heart!

I always feel like I can tell her basically anything and she won't judge me for it. Which I love.

It has been SO special this summer because since she moved to my area (after being newly married!) she was able to get a job as the Bible teacher at camp. It's been sooo sweet, and an awesome blessing from God. (I get to see her basically everyday.)
It's especially sweet because when I was still in school, we saw each other nearly every day. We basically had a routine down... and then the next year we hardly ever saw each other because she moved. I was serioulsy deprived of JJ. Read here. (<---WARNING the post is longgg (and not all about that) ha) So it's been EVEN more special in that way.

We've done soo many fun things together. Sleepover during a snowstorm. Hiking through waist high snow in that snowstorm to sled, while getting icicles stuck on our eye lashes. Unlimited hours playing monopoly deal, pinochle and hearts while eating ranch sunflower seeds and drinking water melon slushies. Watching friends. Building an epic fort. Playing cello and singing like whales. haha:) and the list goes on...

A couple of summers ago her and I and Amanda felt like we were all in similar places with God, kind of a low place, and that's when we started the "tuesday group" (If you click on that link to the right there's more detail there) It was for a short time but felt awesome that we all wanted to try to get close with God together. It meant a lot to me.

I love you Jessica Lynn Mooney! You are so special to me and I'm incredibly greatful for our friendship. :)

First Fab Friend Friday! -Christin

Guess what today is??

It's Fabulous Friend Friday!

What's that you say? You've never heard of it? well....that's because.........that's because....I made it up. :)

I decided every Friday for a little while I will feature one of my dear friends on my blog because life is too short. And all you readers can meet my "people".

So first up is my dear friend Christin.

I don't even need to tell her I'm doing this because I know it won't be long before she sees this. She is probably my one and only follower who reads my blog everyday. (there might be more...if you read everyday too, don't be offended. :) but she's definitely the MOST faithful reader!)

Christin is my best friend. We have been friends for about six years, but I'm pretty sure we have known each other for seven. She looks a lot like me (or so everyone is quick to tell us) but honestly it's fine with me.

I even kind of like it.(shh that's a secret)

It makes us feel more like sisters. We're so close that I honestly think of her as my sister.

I've never had a best friend quite like Christin, and our friendship taught me what exactly that even is.

We tell each other everything. And I mean everything. What I love the most about that is that we are so comfortable with each other and it's so refreshing.

We have SO much fun together and it doesn't even matter what we're doing. Most of the time we end up just talking for hours.

Christin has the most beautiful heart for God. She and another of my friends are actually the last "main road" that I took to start a relationship with God. Before I went to youth group with her, I didn't even know what serving and living for God really meant. She's helped me to grow and it's been awesome that we as friends can grow in the Lord together.

We are very much on the same page and it's the best accountability I've ever had. (especially bc we ARE so real with each other.)

Despite going to separate colleges, we have grown a lot closer each and every year.

I love Christin's sense of humor and how silly she is sometimes. (sorry christin it's true :)) I love just laughing with her and doing things that others might call strange.

She's amazing with children and I know she will make a great teacher and mother some day.

She has a big smile and I love when she laughs randomly and things that she shouldn't. ;)

Her dance moves are by far the best I've ever seen.

She's a veryyy faithful, and supportive friend and for that I am forever grateful.

She's just an all around great person and one I'm glad to call my BFF.

Love you Christin. :)
