My Bridesmaid: Melissa Gibbons

Melissa Gibbons is such an amazing friend to me.

We just met last year out of Folly Beach with a group of friends. She happens to work with Dave and was dating a guy Dave hang out with. It wasn't until sometime later we really started hanging out and something between her and I just clicked and we talked all the time.

Over the past year, we've done so much together... like hang out at softball games together, go to the Zac Brown Band Concert, as well as celebrate lots of occasion together.. including bridal showers and birthdays.

Cooper Rive Bridge Run

One thing we've done together is participate in the 2010 Cooper River Bridge 10K. I've always wanted to do it... but never thought I would. Melissa emailed me one day and told me she wanted to sign up and thought we should too. It didn't take much convincing as Dave and I had just done a 5K together in January. Boy was that a long run and an early morning. We didn't do too bad.. we finished the race in under two hours and had a great time along the way.

She's a person I enjoy talking with because we completely understand each other. Even though she sees Dave more than me, it's okay. =) She's more my friends anyway! Just Kidding!

I'm so glad the two of us have met and have become such good friends. I know I can always count on her to give me her honest opinion on something as I will for her.

I look forward to what's to come with our friendship over the years.
