Cassie Lou

 So this may seem like a random post. But this human is my person. (for those who have seen Grey's Anatomy--yes we are Meredith and Christina). It was her birthday on the 14 of March and this post is for her. Cassie Toone is my person. Happy-late-Birthday my dear.

For those who don't know my family--or Cassie--here are some facts: Cassie is my cousin. She was born in March, I was born in May, I am three feet taller and rounder then she is. We have basically have been best friends ever since. I mean just look below at some solid pics from the past.

haha typical jess "uh" face and cass in pink sweats and flip flops haha can't even

and yes this was a snap...we are both digging for gold because we have zero money haha

this pictures shows you how we know how to  improvise when our pants get wet haha

   

and here we are striking a pose---what of it.

Cassie is my person. I am so blessed to have a best friend who I am stuck with eternally. Families are forever and I am so grateful for the fact that she is my cousin. Here are some of my favorite memories of the two of us.

• sleepovers at grandma's pretending we were in a hotel: huge bubble baths, orange juice out of champagne glasses..etc.
• playing pic up sticks in bed..haha 
• dance offs--for anybody interested we know how to make good music videos
• stair Olympics--seriously though so fun
• gymnastic meets--with scotch tape on the carpet as our balance beam haha
• those times eating a whole thing of ice cream and watching sappy movies (yes we are girls)
• singing at the top of our lungs--we should probably invest in music lessons
• all the junior high adventures (oh bless the awkward stages), high school drama, college and real life situations...wondering if we are ever going to figure it out. 
• sleeping in a twin bed (yes we do that)

Overall, I could list a million more things. But the main thing is that she is there. Always there. In junior high we literally would talk on the phone for at least and hour or more. That hasn't changed. She listens to me. Ask me the person who I text or call or at least snap everyday it would be her. I love her. She is now 20. The big 2..0. I am excited for the adventures that await for us, but also am so thankful for all the adventures we have had. I love you Cass. Happy-late-Birthday!!

Enjoy pics from our last minute dance session recently. haha oh goodness :)
