Best Friend's Day

It is our friends that we turn to in good times and bad. I know that my life would not be the same without my friends.

I've told my husband time and time again that I am able to handle life in this country because of my friends.

It is certainly true that we have friends for a reason, a season and a lifetime.

And in this age of technology, we are able to make friends around the world through blogging. I was blessed to meet Susan from A Circle of Buttons last summer. And there are so many of you that I would love to meet from the US to England to Australia, New Zealand and Canada and all points in between.

Each and every one is here for us during our journey through life.


Sending hugs and blessings to one and all and thanking you for your friendship in the here and now. Best wishes, Tammy

  2. This is lovely. Great photos.
    I'm one who has always just had a couple of very close women friends and the rest just acquaintances. My best friend is my husband and I mean that truly. He and I do everything together and I cherish the days we have on this earth.

    I'm away now very soon on vacation while our daughter is here visiting. Hope you have a wonderful remainder to the week and weekend.

  16. I'm glad we're friends.
    I just know if one of my friends who live in my computer walked up to my door (or I even saw at the grocery store) I would know them in a heartbeat. We know each other usually much more than I know most of my "real" neighbors! Diane

  22. You are a friend that I know I will be sitting on a porch somewhere in the future (with Renee), rocking in our chairs and enjoying each other's company and probally talking about all the crazy, fun and memorable things we have done in this life. You are more than a friend to me (sniffle). You are family. Love ya to bits.

    Friendship Forever,
    Melissa

  23. How fitting that I would leave my post to you right after Melissa. With friends like the two of you, every day is best friends day. There are few people that have made an impact on me like the two of you. I love you both like sisters, and am thankful for every moment with you, even if it is through the computer. You make me look good too!! A thorn between two roses in that first picture...

    With love always,
    Renee
