Ohhhhh saddle. Growing up with this gal is one of the greatest blessings in my life. I really have never met anyone else like saddle. Thinking of a million memories but i’ll share just a few!
Throwin it wayyyy back to when my family had just moved into our ward. I was nervous about being able to make friends there and feeling super shy. One Sunday Sades and her awesome family were out for a walk. I remember she came and knocked on our door, and asked if I would want to go on a walk with them. I still remember she was wearing a light yellow sweatshirt :) I was so grateful that someone in the ward reached out to me and made me feel a little more comfortable.
Another story from when we were younger, one time her and I were hanging out in her backyard. We decided that we wanted to hear each others best singing voices but it was embarrassing so we each turned away from each other and sang in our very best voices (sadie was actually good, me...I’m pretty sure she was holding in her giggles hahah) we sang that song by Tim McGraw that says “I went skydiving, I went rocky mountain climbing” haha can’t think of what that songs called but everytime I hear it now I just smile :) we did a lot of funny things at her house... one time her lovie and I pretended like we were orphans and cleaned their entire garage. You’re welcome Pam and Lee. (At least it felt like we cleaned the whole thing haha)
As we got older we had the chance to go to UVU together and live at King Henry together, where I can confidently say I was the official 5th member of apartment 66. She was thee hugest example to me that first year of college. I loved going into sadie and lovies room cause it felt kind of like home. It was so cozy, had so many pictures of all our memories up, and I always noticed sadies scriptures were always right next to her bed or on her bed. This motivated me to read mine as much as she read hers. She also went to institute every week, even if she was slammed with tons of homework. She got us all to go and it always ended up being sooo fun and always brought the spirit and strengthened our testimonies!
I don’t know how I got so lucky to have this girl in my life but I did! I love thinkig back to our all memories! It instantly makes me smile or laugh :) I love and miss you so much sades! Happy birthday!!
