Farewell Sister Crystal

Wow blogging two days in a row?  Who woulda thought?? 

So one of my best friends, Collette Sandra Crystal, is leaving on her mission TODAY.  :( Frownie face, frownie face frownie face.  I don't even know if that is how you spell frownie, but it reminded me of brownie so I did it :)  See there are always things to smile about.  But then again here I am, at work, in a sweatshirt that I took from her last night when I said goodbye....frowning.

So I am going to go down memory lane you a little bit about my dear friend Collette, I mean, Sister Crystal.  I have played softball against Collette since we were young, then once we got into highschool we were on the same team, and that is where it all began.  She has been one of my best friends since our Sophomore year of high school.  So that makes it a total of five years.  Five years of crazy, fun, amazing adventures, conversations, heartbreaks and loves.

First thing that you need to know about Collette is that she is a BALLER!!  Ever since she was little she was  playing football in the boy leagues, schooling them all in basketball and whatever sport they tried playing.  No surprise there, she went to Western Wyoming to play basketball

Next thing you need to know about Collette is that she always knows how to have a good time.  I mean she lived in Rock Springs, Wyoming for two whole years...by hearing and seeing what she did made me want to go and live there!

Who else could come up with something like this??

Last thing that you need to know about Collette is her how strong her spirit is.  She has been someone that I could go to for anything.  She is so selfless in all of her acts, she will never ever put herself first.  Her testimony is so strong and because of that I know she is going to be a fantastic missionary.  I am not worried for her in the slightest.  I will miss her, but I am not worried.  She will do amazing things in Independence, Missouri.  I am very fortunate to have someone like Collette in my life.
