Let's Take This Relationship To The Next Level

Are you wondering who I'm referring to by the title? Mal from Mal Smiles of course! Do I have your attention?! Since it is "Woman Crush Wednesday", I thought this post would be appropriate. It's safe to assume that we've reached that turning point and gone from "blog besties" to "real life besties". Don't worry, I'm not getting all mushy on you all...that's so not my style. I've done a little research on how to tell if someone is your best friend and it seems we meet most of the criteria. This goes deeper than a mutual love of blogging, documenting life, taking selfies, cooking, wearing leggings as much as possible, and sharing the same twisted sense of humor (basically we are both hilarious). It just clicks, this chick is on my level and I know now matter what we'll always be there for one another. My theory is that we go WAY back -I wouldn't be surprised if we have churned butter together in a past life! How cool is it that blogging and a retirement community have brought us together?!? It's a total bummer being separated by two time zones, but somehow we stay connected and it works!

It was pretty amazing having her here in town over the break and being able to just get together for simple things like running to the store so my Kohl's 30% off coupon didn't go to waste! New Year's Eve was a blast! We celebrated with our boys and our parents, pigged out on yummy Mexican food, played board games and laughed a ton.

Thanks Mal for always making ME smile....okayyy my #WCW work here is done! Head on over to Mal's page and be sure to follow her if you don't already! Also, don't forget to link up with us next week for the EIGHTH round of The Boys Behind The Blog (had to throw in a shameless BBB plug)!
