Taylor and me

Happy 7 years of friendship and love to my best friend Taylor.

It's been a ride but we've grown and shaped each other and I wouldn't change any of the heartache and love for anything. We are perfect for each other today because of the past 7 years together. We never gave up on each other. We could never forget about one another - even if we tried to move on. We made it. It's amazing we met at 15 and somehow our lives and future together make so much sense. We have the same dreams and goals and connections and we are so lucky to have had so much history that we understand and can communicate with each other extremely well. We know each others weaknesses and strengths, we know each other more than we know ourselves. We truly complete each other and I am so grateful for the love that we share and for the happiness that surrounds us when we are together. I can't wait for the next 7 years and for the eternity to come after.

7 years from now we'll:

-Have graduated from BYU (Taylor in Finance, me in Marketing)

-Had 2 more internships (but we'll be together for them and not apart)

-Have lived in NYC while Taylor worked on Wall Street for two years as an investment banker and I worked (hopefully) for J.Crew or a wedding designer

-Be attending MBA school (the dream is at The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania)

Big dreams ahead.
