meet Steph...

steph and i first met in high school, becoming instant friends on the field hockey field. i had just moved from living with my mom in kentucky to new york with my dad & sister and knew no one. our families however were friends long before that, going to the same church and our sisters were in the same class since elementary school. we went our separate ways in college and it wasn’t until our parents bumped into each other after we had graduated informing the other that we were both living in boston post college.

fast forward to today…steph is one of my closest friends. this girl has a seriously amazing sense of humor & wit, your face will hurt from laughing so much after hanging around her, no joke. she also happens to be one of the kindest people i know, always putting others before herself. she organizes things like amazing halloween & apres ski parties at her house or field trips out to pick apples or watch a sporting event. she also happens to be an incredible baker, which can be very dangerous for your waistline! she's the kind of friend that would do absolutely anything for you, and she HAS done just about everything (even crazy stuff) for me. she always listens to my non-stop non-sense, and there's a lot of it, but always offers the most morally sound, brutally honest and reasonable advice. she exudes confidence and her general good nature is contagious. can you tell i just love her to pieces?

everyone should have a friend like steph in their life, i just can't say enough about her...

Favorite Quote? "The search for love and the search for wealth are always the best stories. but while a love story is timeless, the story of a quest for wealth, given enough time, will always seem like the vain pursuit of a mirage."
