I want to be there for ya baby.
Once again... rewriting the livejournal entry that deleted on me. *le sigh*
Okay so...
Cindra and I were driving home from dinner tonight and we got to talking about 'great memories'. By the end of it all, I had tears in my eyes from laughing so hard and I started thinking how blessed I am to have such amazing memories. We mostly talked about the trips to Mexico and Arizona when we were in high school....
We talked about how our Jr. year in Arizona, Cindra and Joel had a pretty much do-nothing job and just goofed around the entire day. And I remember how one day Cindra drew me a picture and Joel made me a bracelet (I wonder where that is!).
We talked about one year at the winter retreat, how Joel, Danny, Cindra and I went up early to help the band set up when in reality I'm sure we just wanted to get out of school early. After scheming for a little bit, Cindra and I crawled up a snowbank that Joel and Danny were under and completely covered them in snow by pushing the whole top off. We hid in the van until stupid Alan Mitchell unlocked the doors and let the boys in to attack us. I remember wrestling, fighting, running, tripping, snow balls and face plants and stuffing snow inside eachother's snow suits. (I also think that was the year Cindra and I were laying on the ground in the parking lot and then realized we were laying a little too close for comfort to a peculiar hair)... Hahaha.
We talked about how coming home from Arizona my Senior year, Danny, Joel and I got in a huge water bottle fight that ended up soaking us, our bags, our pillows and the ceiling of the van...
Or the one time Joel rubbed a cherry sucker on Cindra's face and when she woke up a few hours later Joel was licking her face.
Or the time Joel, Danny, Bryan and several other boys hid in my backyard and tried to give me a bloody heart attack. And THEN the next day when I confronted them about it and Dan yelled at them for making me cry, when in reality, it wasn't them that had made me cry at all.
OR the time we shaved Danny and Joel's legs in Arizona.
Or the time that we made that video (which one, I hear you ask). The one we showed the church, for the new building, and I carried Danny... and Danny ran into the glass door.

I'm so blessed for the memories I have. The memories I can look back on and feel nothing but pure joy and absolute humiliation for how many times I made a complete fool out of myself... lol, but loved every minute of it. If I could go back and relive it, I wouldn't, because once was enough, haha, but being reminded makes me smile and my heart overflows with such amazing feelings.
And I can't wait for the future road trips, the boat trips, the snow trips, the beach trips, the pushing, the teasing, the laughing until I cry, the fighting, the wrestling, the moments where there's nowhere I'd rather be, with someone I can have new memories with, new moments, new 'journal entries' (ha) and new times I can look back on and laugh until it hurts.
