This year marks 5 years since I graduated law school. This means I've known the friends I've made in law school for 8 years. Since I was 23 years old. These "law school friends" are arguably some of the best I've made my entire life. They've been with me through really hard times (the first year of law school comes to mind...finals...the bar exam...to name a few). They've also been with me through some of the happiest times of my life (meeting my now husband...celebrating with us at our wedding...throwing me my baby shower...supporting me as a new mom....and this list could go on and on).
These women are my sisters. I love them more than I could ever express. And I am impressed and awed by them all. I am lucky to have them as friends.
We all met in Athens this weekend to celebrate 5 years of lawyering 8 years of friendship. What I recall of the weekend was fabulous. We drank too much wine. We laughed. We reminisced. A tear or two may have been shed. We shopped. We laughed some more.
I'm always sad the day after spending a weekend with my ladies because I know it'll be months before we're all back together again. And while I may often regret having gone to law school, I'd do it all over again because I can't imagine not having you girls in my life!
Until next time....
How cute are you in your red skinnies??! Love them. And oh how I love Athens GA.
ReplyDeleteThanks Katie! I think Athens on a gameday weekend is probably the only time I'll feel comfortable breaking out the red jeans :)
