315/365

Today is the birthday of one of my dearest friends of all time.... Rachel Burton!!!!!  In honor of her birthday I have written a poem.

Rachel, YOU ARE THE BEST!

Rachel, you are so cool,
You really are the best!
Rachel, you have really pretty hair,
You really are the best!

Rachel, you have a cool fish on your wall,
You really are the best.
Rachel, I think you are the best wii dancer I've ever known,
You really are the best.

Rachel, one time we made really cool tie dye t-shirts,
You really are the best!
Rachel, I need to come back to book club,
You really are the best.

Rachel, remember when we went fishing?
You really are the best.
Rachel, remember the 17 lb fish I caught... or didn't catch?
You really are the best.

Rachel, you are married,
You really are the best.
Rachel, you love m&m's,
You really are the best.

Rachel, because of you I purchased my first pair of Toms
You really are the best.
Rachel, one time I was going to sit by you in church on your birthday but the plan failed and it was so funny,
You really are the best.

Rachel, I am drinking coffee right now,
You really are the best.
Rachel, you don't like coffee but maybe one day you will.
You really are the best.

Rachel, I just love you,
You really are the best!
Rachel, hey... HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!
YOU REALLY ARE THE BEST!

Hey Rachel, this is just an add on....
YOU REALLY ARE THE BEST!

The end.


I must say that I am so so thankful for my friend Rachel and the fact that we randomly (kind-of) met at church and our worlds just clicked. God has blessed me with many great friends, but Rach is one that could never in a million years be replaced! Thankful for all the fun memories we made while she was at Clemson... and now the memories we KEEP making as she is a real grown-up teacher! She is so cool!

Love you, Rach! Happy Birthday!

PS I had a really cool picture to post of us from church this morning, but I placed my phone in a cooler of ice water. Failure. So in lieu of that really cool picture, I am posting pics from one of my favorite memories with her.... SNOW day in Clemson! :)
So, Rach has this really cool husband.
His name is Bryan.
They are very cool.
This is my favorite picture of the two of them.... 
Love her! :) She's so beautiful... and cool... and funny... and smart...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RACHEL!!!!!
