Jenny Freeman: Jenny means so much to me, I could never put it all on here. She is my best friend and the person that has been there for me through everything life has thrown at me. We get along great and we have a lot in common. People even used to say we looked like twins, or sisters. She's a lot like a sister to me actually. We've been through so much together and I tell her things I could never tell anyone else. She has a son named Kalob, who is adorable, and a new daughter (10/27/99) named Kylee. Kalob was born in August of 1997, and celebrated his first birthday in August of 98. He just keeps getting bigger and bigger, and I love him to death. I have yet to see Kylee I'm afraid :( Josh (Kalob and Kylee's father) and Jenny broke up shortly after Jenny got pregnant again. Jenny used to tease me by calling me "Aunty Paige" *Grin* But I love it. Anyway, Jenny is one of the best friends I've ever had and I love her lots and lots. I have a feeling that we'll always stay friends, no matter where life takes us. I adore her, and I love her a lot, and she will always be special to me. Take care Jenny =)
Jennifer Lightner: Jennifer is another person who means a lot to me. She's someone I can tell my secrets too, and know that no one else will find out (which is a rare thing to find in this town) She calls me mom and calls Chris dad.. a joke that's been around for a long time. She's loads of fun to hang out, and a blast to be around. She gets into too much trouble though.. (must be that motherly instinct.. *laugh*) She can be a sweetheart, although she also has this attitude, and won't let anyone mess with her, and is very vocal about her opinions. :) She's had a rough time of things lately, though, I'm afraid. Recently her brother Jesse was murdered. I hope all is well with her and I wish her the best of luck in the future, and I hope she gets her act together soon. Still, she rocks. :)
Erin Owens: Erin is neat =) We used to hang out a lot, off and on, and we had a ton of fun. Recently though she moved to Michigan, and I haven't really talked to her since. We first met cause my ex boyfriend was with her, and trying to get back together with me at the same time. But that's another story. Anyhow, we started talking on the phone and became friends somehow or another. :) I first met her when we went to the lake one day and it was fun ;D We used to go out to the goat farm, but we don't anymore. Goats.. hrm.. yeah. Anyway, now we would just randomly drive around, pick up guys, make fun of them, and drive off. It was kind of fun. And the guys we hung out with and talked to, we normally made fun of too, cause uhm.. most guys suck =) Erin is also my lover ;) We were going to make a video and sell it for lots of money to the guys we know, cause they all want to watch and we won't let them. :) Erin had a daughter on November 9th, 1998. Her name is Taylor Marie Owens, and she's adorable. :) I'm the father of Erin's baby, and she's the father of mine! Erin's a good friend ;) I'm glad I know her, we've have fun together, and I miss having her nearby. I hope all is well with her in Michigan and that life is treating her well. She rocks =)
Chris Wegner: Chris is a hard person for me to explain. I met him in 1991, when I first moved to Montana, and I used to have the biggest crush on him. In 1995 we started to date, and we dated until like April of 1998. Our relationship wasn't exactly good, by any standards, though I cared about him a lot and believed that I was completely in love with him. He cheated on me a lot, and more often than not, things were going badly. But we had our moments, I suppose. Anyhow, we broke up in April of 1998 when I found he had gotten someone pregnant in February. He had also moved to California in the ARMY. Well, apparently the girl was never pregnant, and faked it for the whole 9 months. Chris and I became friends again, and still are. Recently, on November 30th, he married Stacey Warinke, though I don't understand why he suddenly did that. But I really hope the best for him, because I just hope he's happy. =) I'll always care about him.
Jen Case: Jen Case is a really hard person to explain. I met her when I was 12. We became friends fairly quickly, after 'hating' each other at first. Our friendship was a lot like that. We hated each other one day and were best friends the next. It was constantly like that. We also had this bad habit of liking the same guys, which never got us much of anywhere. In 1995, we got in trouble for shoplifting together, among many other things.. By the time 1996 came around, I was with Chris, and Jen had ended up living here at my house. We were working, even at the same place and well, things were starting to get kind of tense I guess. Since we'd always had that off and on friendship, it was a bit harder when the person lived with you. And even shared a room with you. Well at some point, we got into a fight, I believed something had happened with her and Chris, so I was really mad at her. She moved out while I was at work, taking stuff of mine and my mom's with her. I was furious. I was at Chris' work, and him and I were fighting, when Jen showed up there one day. I was already mad, and wondering why she was at *my* boyfriends work, we exchanged words, and I ended up punching her. Erm.. Shortly after, she moved to Great Falls and has lived there ever since. I, of course, had heard details of her life, but never so much as talked to her, or had any desire to talk to her. That was around the summer of 1995. At the end of January, 1999, she called and ended up coming over. It was interesting. She was in town for a weekend basically, and we spent a lot of time catching up. She also has two kids.. Austin, who will be 2 on May 5th, I believe, and Liberty who was born on November 9th, 1998, just like Erin's baby. I also introduced Erin and Jen the three of us went out one night, and we all got along well, so it was cool. Jen has a lot going on in her life right now, and I feel pretty bad for her. I hope it all works out okay. I haven't heard from her since she was in town, but I think I might get in touch with her mom soon to see how she's doing. :)
Shawna Cushing: Shawna lives down the street from me, and I've known her since I was in 6th grade. I used to go to this girl Sarah Conroy's house (who is a sick individual, I might add) and we used to pick on Shawna terribly.. making her sleep out in the rain, and making her wear an all torn up dress in front of Sarah's dad and having her kiss Sarah's little brother.. (it was mean stuff, mostly Sarah's ideas, but ahh oh well) Anyway, I didn't talk to Shawna for a long time, and then Jennifer Lightner was friends with her so I ran into her again. Me and Shawna have our problems, always have, and I dunno if we'll ever particularly be friends, but we tolerate each other and hang out anyway. Over time we've gotten along better, and for awhile she was Carrie's baby-sitter. She was a great help, and didn't expect a lot of pay, though she eventually switched to a real job. She's come a long ways so far, and I hope things keep getting better for her.
Chris Baker: Seems everyone thinks I'm obsessed with Chris', and perhaps they are right. It seems that way sometimes... =) Chris became my best guy friend at the beginning of freshman year. We talked every night and talked every day, and I could tell him anything and everything. He was very very special to me. At the end of freshman year, I went to Pennsylvania for the summer, to see my dad and other relatives. At the end of that summer I came home and the first thing I did was call Chris. Chris came right over to see me, which was great. But things were different. Something had changed. Now, we talk sometimes.. only once every month or two. And when we do talk, we tell each other all that's been going on in our lives, and give each other advice, just like we used to do when we talked daily. It's not the same, but I still care about him a lot and in a lot of ways, he's still one of my best friends. And I know that he cares about me too. He's a special guy, and I'll never forget him. I will love him forever I'm sure, because of all he's helped me through. He's proved himself time and time as one of my few true friends. Thank you Chris.
Brittany Heerema: Brittany is a very special person to me. She is now 8 and she's the best =) Her and Alicia are my girls, and I love them very very much. I first met them about 4 or 5 years ago, I think. Brittany was 1, almost 2 years old, and still in diapers. Her, Alicia, and Danielle (their mother) moved to Montana from.. um.. I can't remember. Anyhow, we didn't know them, but Danielle was friends with this guy named Micheal, who my mom was also friends with. He talked to us, and Danielle, and arranged for her to come live with us temporarily. So in they moved =) I started baby-sitting for Britt and Alicia then, and I still do. Of course, they don't live at my house, but they do live right across town. I've watched Brittany grow up, and I'm so proud of everything she does.
Alicia Heerema: Alicia is, of course, Brittany's sister. She's now 10 years old. I love her to death as well. Alicia was 4 when she moved here and she was always a big help with Britt. I remember though, that Brittany would *always* go to bed with no problem, and Alicia was a pain ;) As the years progressed, Alicia would be fast asleep and I'd sneak back to their bedroom to find Brittany 'reading' in bed ;) *laughs* The girls have taught me so much, and I enjoy spending time with them. I love teasing Alicia about all her little boyfriends too :) She's a bright girl, she loves school, she has tons of friends, and she doesn't mind letting her little sister tag along. I love these girls to death, I don't know what I'd do without them =)
James Ridle: James is a great guy. I met him when I was in 8th grade, 'cause we had class together. I used to be friends with this girl, Sarah Olson, and James and his friends would whitewash us daily (erm, that means throwing us in the snow and kicking it on us and stuff, for all of you perverts). After 8th grade, we didn't talk much and then I ran into him and some other people local to me on IRC on a different network than I usually frequent. We didn't talk much then either, though we did hang out one day. Anyway, recently we've started hanging out more. Aaron came to hang out with me and then when Rich was in town, we stopped up at James' work, and I'm really glad we did because he's become a very good friend to me in a short period of time. He's helped me out a lot already, and he obviously cares about me and he makes me smile and keeps me laughing. James, you've been great, don't ever change. You're the best just the way you are. *Hug*
Ginger Jester: Ginger is a girl I don't talk to much anymore, which is sad, because she is a great girl. I met her during sophomore year. We hung out every single day and I had a lot of fun with her =) Now she is with Nick Fleury, I think they've been together for like a year now. I don't see her much since I'm not in school, but she works at Country Kitchen so I sometimes see her when I'm there.. I'm supposed to call her soon :) Maybe we'll go get together or something.. that would be fun.. :) I keep forgetting to call her though :( I'm sorry@&^$%@ Anyway, Ginger just rocks.. and she's a cute girl too =)
Destiny Chartier: While I guess I can't really call Destiny my friend, I feel as if I can at least include her on my page now. We used to be very very good friends, a long time ago. I met her in 6th grade and have been friends with her ever since. She's always been one of my best friends. In 9th grade we started hanging out with Jaime Sheldon and Jenny Freeman, and we became a 'group', and the four of us were best friends. At the end of 10th grade I made the biggest mistake, and she's hated me ever since. It was hard to deal with, yet completely my fault, so I learned to accept it. I'll always care about her a lot though, and care about the things she goes through in life. Within the last year we've been getting along better, and I guess we're past all that other stuff. She recently moved to Georgia to be with Cody, so I hope all goes well for her. :)
I have more people to add, but I'm afraid I can't get around to it now. I will try to add the others as soon as possible.. In the meantime, some special people to me are: Marla George, Jessi Schendel, Danielle Watkinson, Kristen Morrison, Josh Whaley, I'll add you as soon as I can.. *Hugs* To you all =)
