I was looking through the pictures I have of provo-times, hawaii-times and some other random places and I couldn’t stop smiling. YOUR FACE! its so expressive. so FUN. So different in every shot! I love that so many of my favourite memories from the past few years are ones that include you. Remember biking downtown to center street in provo, my first summer there? Remember climbing in rock canyon - oh man, how I miss those rocks. Remember driving with me to Bear-Lake to crash my family reunion with me? That was my favourite reunion in a long time! Remember when you offered to let me share your room in the cedar ave house, and then had to shove your bed into the closet to make room for me? That was so awesomely generous. And was the reason why I have so many (totally unanticipated) GREAT memories of my utah-time. You are a beautiful soul. I am forever moved by your generosity, your passion, your rad move’m n shake’m dance moves, your tender heart - the way you see the people around you, your honesty, your questions, your genuine REALNESS. You know the art of sacrifice and you know the art of being a true friend - thank you for being mine.
