Whitney Houston is dead. Which means a big part of my life is dead. Well at least a good nine months of my life. Lets take it back to high school shall we. There I was dancing my little heart out. There we were 24 girls dancing over and over to "How Will I Know?" by Whitney Houston. Perfecting it. Drilling it. Loving it. Hating it. Eating, sleeping and drinking it. I kinda miss those days like crazy. I am sure those of you who were in a high school athletic can relate. Your teammates , whether you like it or not become part of you. Let me also share a sentimental moment with you. Stay with me here. The six girls that graduated with me and danced with me, probably my heros. Probably some of my best friends. Girls who really saw you at your best and worst. Who suffered those nasty sock buns, tights, and bright red lipstick. Girls who you had the best laughs with, the most inside jokes with, and the joys of victories with. Girls who also talked trash with you about the latest boy who did you wrong, and the girl he did you wrong with. Girls who showed up to your wedding reception without the slightest hesitation, even though it was on a thursday night and those smarty pants's had class on friday. Now lets not forget about those coaches as well, who put up with the drama and tears and sometimes bad attitudes. Those same coaches who showed up to your wedding reception. The ones who you admire so much and who taught you some of the most important life lessons. Yep, a big shout out to all of them! Miss you guys. Come visit me? You cannot put a value on people in your life. I have been blessed with the most amazing people in my life. I have the most supportive and fabulous husband. Some of the best friends from wisconsin who have left a huge footprint on my heart and taught me about true friendship. Outstanding friends in Idaho who motivate me to be my best, who constantly provide me with support. And last but definitely not least a wonderful family, scattered from Washington State all the way to Wisconsin. Love you guys. Well now thats over with. Are you still with me? Good. But really lets all remember especially with Valentines day this week that people are really what matter. President Thomas S. Monson said it best:
