You know when it comes to friends it is commonly known that you either have a lot of good friends and 1 or 2 best friends or a circle of close friends . When it comes to Josh and I, I feel that we have the circle of close friends. Granted we don't keep up like we should but we are close. For me it has always been hard to keep friends. Don't ask me why, we just lose touch over time or we just grow apart. I feel the group of friends that we have now are the greatest bunch of people that we could have found.
Two of our closest friends got married this weekend. They are the type of people that everyone needs to have in their lives. Mitch and Heidi are so much fun and easy to talk to, they really know how to have a good time. I am SO HAPPY for them. They have found the true love that they deserve. There are not words to express the emotions that I felt this weekend. But, the whirlwind has left me is a blissful state when I really feel as though I should be exhausted. Their loved rubbed off on everyone that attended the celebration.
The greatest part was having almost ALL of our close friends at the wedding. I got to laugh and cry with them. I enjoyed dancing with them. You know I was astonished when Heidi told us they were having nine couples in the wedding(one dropped out leaving 8). You know what every single one of those people loved them as much as I do. What a GREAT bunch of people. I only knew one of Heidi's bridesmaids coming into this and I left feeling a closer to each of them as they all had warm hearts. Never did they make me feel as though I didn't belong, they accepted me with open arms. As for the guys, there was only one groomsmen that I had never met before, but what a guy!! This really gave me a chance to get to know these guys so well and learn about them. I came away keeping a small place in my heart for them.
The hardest thing to deal with was realizing that it was all over. Poor Heidi cried at the end of the evening because her beautiful day was gone, leaving her only with the sweet after-taste and craving more. I am saddened at the fact that these people as close as we have grown in a short period of time may only see each other a handful of times in our lives. They are the greatest kind of people to know. Here is a top fifteen(ten was just not enough)list:
Top fifteen things I will remember from Mitch and Heidi's wedding!
15. Getting my first mani/pedi now I am hooked.
