I am thankful for my friend, Beth, and her family tonight. Beth is my good friend from high school. We were co-captains together in high school, and Beth saved my butt once or twice when I needed her. She helped me out again when I needed a place to stay after my first year of college. She took me in and drove me around.

Throughout the years we have known each other, Beth has always been there for me. She is honestly the most loyal friend I have ever known. She makes sure we stay in touch, even when life gets in the way. She remembers everything for us, from special occasions to obscure events that make me laugh when she reminds me. Beth is the best kind of friend any girl can ask for.

Even better, now that we are old and turning gray, our families have fun together too. Our husbands talk guns and beer. Our kids can play and play and play. Giana had fun playing dolls with Cadie, playing trucks with Jason, and hugging Nathan every chance she got! I love camping with the Wolfs and watching our kids grow up together. I am so thankful for this life-long friend!
