Forrest Hutchinson
If you would have asked me a year and a half ago whether Forrest a guy I met while blowing up 20,000 balloons would be my best friend a year from now. I honestly would have hoped for the best and assumed we were best friends from the get go because thats how I roll. But here we are 16 months later and we've been through a ton whether it be you seeing me almost drown in 2 feet of water in the baptism pool or the embarrassment I caused slipping on ice walking to Wendy's with you and Robert Tate Tate.
I know I've been a pretty crappy friend the past few weeks/months but its only because I got caught up and forgot all the awesome memories we had in the past year. I've honestly considered you a brother ever since you told me you liked the office but for some reason you telling me that last week completely caught me off guard. I underestimate how much I mean to my friends far to often and thats exactly what happened here.
I decided to start this blog off with you because of all my friends from the past year you probably mean the most to me. You have literally been there for me 98.9% of the time the past year (I will cut you slack on the last percent and we can just round up) and it means a lot having friends like you. I wouldn't be the Christian I am today if I didn't have awesome influences like you to surround myself with. I'm going to appreciate my last year with you a lot more I promise.
Heres to hoping our friendship becomes one of those 20 year friendships like on the Man Up skit thing.
