Brandy

I don't have a "how we became friends" story about Brandy, but I do have a few good ones. In high school Brandy and I would skip class all the time, and not for any good reason either. One time we skipped and drove the "back way" to Sandpoint. It was a hot day so we took off our shirts and drove in our bras :) Yeah weird I know. We actually didn't know we were headed to Sandpoint because we would just drive and end up where we end up. Another time we ended up in Spangle, again another "back way". Don't get me wrong we got good grades and we did graduate :), but we didn't attend a lot of classes our Senior Year of high school. If we weren't driving around skipping class we were over at our friend, Sean's house (he was in college) just hangin out eating pizza and watching TV.

Since high school we have actually taken a lot of trips together. For John's 21st birthday we all flew to Vegas to celebrate. We had a great time. Jaime (coming soon), Brandy and I hung out most days together because we were the only ones not hung over :) We walked the strip and checked out every hotel, ate at all the good restaurants, and enjoyed every minute of it. Until we stopped and realized our feet were killing us. So one night we stayed in the hotel and soaked our feet in the bath tub. It felt so good, but when we drained the bath tub we realized how dirty our feet were. There was a black ring around the whole bath tup, it was pretty disgusting, but John and his brother did have their feet in the tub too :)

Another trip Brandy, John and I took was to the Oregon coast, but it wasn't supposed to be just the three of us. We had been planning a trip with some of our friends (I can't even remember where we wanted to go) but the day before we were to leave everyone bailed except the three of us. So we decided to just plan a trip for ourselves, and we did. We drove down the Oregon Coast just John, Brandy and I and we had the best time! It was actually kind of funny because we camped most nights and all slept in the same tent (me in the middle) but one night we wanted to splurge and get a hotel. We spent around $40 for a hotel and the room was awful, the floor was soaked, the bed was nasty and we were even afraid to use the shower :) That night we all slept on the same bed in our sleeping bags with our shoes right next to the bed. It was really funny!

Brandy and I always have a great time together no matter the circumstances, and that's really what I love about her, we can always have fun!
