Getting rid of old things has been the theme of this summer. So today I deleted about half of my facebook friends. It was about time, because if I don't talk to them I don't really care enough to look at their crap online. I also have been deleting a lot of people on AIM as well. It feels good to cut these people from my life; some I don't even like or know well! Ha. So Ashley's wedding is this week, I'm really excited! I finished my toast today I'll post it. It has been/will be a crazy week. Just cos I'm home for such a short time I have a ton of different appointments and want to see a bunch of people. Today I have to go pick up my dress and then I'm hanging out with Kt and Kate. Tomorrow morning I have to take my car to the garage, again. Then lunch with Abbie and then I'm hanging out with Ashley and Jamie, doing some stuff for the wedding too. Then Thursday and Friday are full blown wedding day stuff for sure. So that is my week, Saturday I'm getting me hair cut at 11 and then going to meet Hilary for lunch. I'm excited to see her!!! Then I'm going to me new home to sleep, cos I know I'm gonna be pooped. I am definitely going to the beach Sunday and I don't care that I'll still have a ton to do, because I'm only 3 miles/8 minutes away from the ocean and only .5 miles from the bay beaches, I mean I could walk that!!
My toast
I don't want to say a lot today, but I do want to say one or two very important things. Ashley has been a great friend in so many ways and she truly looks lovely today. We first bonded over gym class because the only time we were picked first was when one of us was the captains and from that our friendship really grew.
We've had a lot of fun together, and she's always been there for me no matter what. As you all know she is an amazing person who can light up any room and put a smile on anyone's face. She always looks for the good in things and people and I really admire that about her.
She has found an amazing match in Chris and you can tell how much they love each other. They are just so comfortable with one another. And they always seem to be excited to be in each other's company. And that tells me that they have the foundation for a wonderful marriage: not just lovers, but lifelong friends as well.
I am ecstatic for both of you. You truly complement one another. You met as friends and it evolved into a love that so many people rarely find today. Love after all, isn't the only thing you need for a wonderful marriage.
Love is what makes the ride worthwhile. And it's a wonderful thing when two people who were made for each other manage to fall in love. So I'd like to make a toast. And I'd like to make it with this thought in mind: I know you will have a good marriage, because it will resemble a lifelong friendship not just only love. So this is to you, Ashley and Chris, and a wonderful life together. So let's toast, to the two friends, lovers and soul mates.
