Goodbye Laurel Party

I've got a lot of catching up to do. (Shout out to Haley for letting me scam some Internets!) Expect lots of post every time I've got Internet access...

Last Thursday Night 9/29/2011

Terri & Chad’s Farewell Party!

How amazing a feeling it is to be loved and to be sincerely missed by people that have come into your life and poured so much into you and shaped what kind of person you would turn into. It has been such a bittersweet feeling leaving Laurel and moving onto something completely new 2600 miles away. I can’t explain enough how lucky I feel since high school. I went to college not knowing a soul there and now 6 years later I have the best friends and new family that a girl could ever hope for. Those few amazing ones I met in high school stood by me always and then all these new characters popped up and made me grow and taught me so many things about people in general. I cherish my friends; I cherish our memories, and the simple way that each one of them is different from each other. My batchlorette party was a perfect example of the mesh up of friends that I have. I guess it’s like when you have kids, I’m always scared that I will love one more than the others… but then with friends you love the different parts of them that fit so well with yourself maybe that’s how loving kids works too.

So, back to reality now – sorry I’ve been emotional lately (hence the outpouring of friend love) I hate to say that I didn't get to take a lot of pictures at the party (because my camera went nuts) of our wonderful friends and family but one person did come that I had to try and get a photo with...

One person that helped shape me entirely in college was one of my Sociology professor who single handily forced me to do my best and kept me interested and on my toes every year. I look up to her and the sweetest gift is the friendship that we have developed throughout the last few years. That being said we can’t take a good picture together for anything! Enjoy:

That is just too insane.

We love each once of our beautiful friends and thank you so much for coming to see us that one last time! It was an amazing night and a great last show in Laurel for Chad. I should have taken a picture of each one of you instead I’m going to give a shout our right now to everyone I can remember seeing and if I forget you don’t hate me: Hank & Kayla S, Kevin & Ginny S, Kyle T & Family, (including their sweet baby girl who danced the night away) Josh W, Tyler H, Jessie G, Chad’s Grandmother & Granddaddy, Uncle Tom A,  Granny & Papaw S, Mother & Step Father, Michelle C, Dustin, Nicole C, Harvey L, Donna C, Mrs. P, Tim T, Jodie J, Skinnard, Angie I, Zach U, Candice & friends, Big John & date, Shaumi, Drew P, Dana F & Father & Friend, Tracey P, Amanda G, Lisa S, Katie W, and more. I THINK I included everyone but if I didn’t I am So sorry and It is not on purpose – the out pouring of love and support we got that night meant so much to us I can’t even correctly explain it. Thank you from the bottom or our hearts!
