my girl charlene

HAPPY 22nd BIRTHDAY TO MY BEST BUD CHARLENE!

she and i met when we were 14. our moms' made us hang out even though we thought the other was weird. but we clicked instantly. she's my 1/2 filipina sista from anotha mista.

she's my best friend (besides brett of course)
we've shared so many memories and adventures that i wish i wrote a book about 'em.
she helped me to be more confident in myself, be more outgoing and not take things too serious.

she was with me when we first went to college and helped me to not be scared. cuz i get scared easily...we went latin dancing ALL the time! HOTATATATA
charlene's my WARPED TOUR pal! we went to DC and SLC.
those were some of the most freakin fun times in my life.

we've grown up so much since we've met but we're still little girls at heart.

she can tell you some REALLY EMBARRASSING stories of me!

i think she's the most BEAUTIFUL GIRL.

she's going to make such a great missionary. i'm so proud of her going on a mission.

luv you tonz charlene!

happy birthday again and may you have MANY MORE!!

i hope we still get to make lots more memories in the future!

love, alyssa
