Girlfriends.

There is honestly nothing better in the world than having amazing girlfriends. 

I don't use the word "blessed" a lot, but when it comes to the women in my life, that's the best way to describe how I feel about them. Totally, 100% blessed that they are in my life. I have some of the best friends a girl/woman could ask for, and I'm thankful for each and every one of them. 

It always made me sad that I didn't have a sister. Someone that would be that ONE female for me. It was those damn Sweet Valley High books that made me long for an identical twin and all that closeness that came with it. I'm a girls-girl. I love to share, gossip, freak out and analyze celebrity news. I love to over think out loud and spew and vent. Things women really can't do with (most) men... 

Over the past few months I've had an influx of amazing girl time. Laughing, crying, dancing, eating, trips...I'm really one hell of a lucky girl. I've bonded in unexpected ways with new women and spent fabulous hours with lifelong friends. I owe my sanity to the girlfriends I have in my life - online and in real life. 

Over the next few weeks I'm going to be posting a lot about girlfriends... what I've learned, what we've done and sharing things that make you just happy to be a woman.
