Favorite Friend Friday

My favorite friend Friday is going to have to go out to more than one person because it consists of a family of 3: Reuben, Kim and Raechel Councill

I have been blessed with having this wonderful friendship with each member of the Councill family since the year 2000 when I first started teaching at Fairview Elementary. The way that I became so close with this family is through Lori. Lori was already really close with the Councill family and so when I came along and started teaching with Lori, we all started hanging out and having chick flick night on Tuesdays. It was so much fun. We would all hang out at Kim's every Tuesday night and watch a movie or sometimes we just hung out and talked. The more we all hung out the closer we became. I was only blessed with having these wonderful friends in the same town as me for a year because Kim was going back to school to get her Doctorate. The Councill's moved to Ohio, where Kim worked extremely hard to get her degree...Go Kim! When Kim graduated, she took a job in Pennsylvania...which is where they are still living. Each year on Easter weekend, the Councill's come to Sylva to visit. It is a visit that we all look soooo forward to. We are lucky that things have worked out the past few years for them to be able to come to Sylva and spend this wonderful holiday weekend with us.
Even though there are many miles between us, I still look upon the Councill's as some of the greatest friends that I have EVER had. I love and care for each one of them so much. I know that they are a God send for me and I love them and cherish their friendship-always.
