Friendship is like a prism through which the many variations of beauty are revealed in our lives.


This week on Kelly's Korner "Show Us Your Life" we are suppose to display our "Single Guys". Now I am sure that most women are going to do their sons, nephews, cousins, brothers...but I have chosen to present you with my idea of the perfect guy (next to Todd of course), my life long friend, Brian.

This is Brian.

Brian and I have been friends almost our entire lives. He lived down the street from me, we were in class together, we had the same group of friends, we both played soccer (well he excelled I was just there) and we have always just been close. I consider him one of my greatest and most "bestest" friends ever.

Brian graduated high school the same year I did (2002) with so many honors, it would need its own post.

He played soccer and baseball and was in numerous organizations.

After high school he went to college at the University of Southern Mississippi.

(our plan was to go together and be roommates, our parents were cool with this because we are just like brother/sister but I was too busy chasing boys to fulfill our plan, so he went alone)

There he majored in Business Administration.

He was also a member of the SAE fraternity ...not just a member, president.

After his years of being a Golden Eagle, he came back to Jackson to attend

Mississippi College School of Law.

Funny thing is, I worked there at the time! So he became one of my student workers! I got to keep a good eye on him this way!

He graduated from Law School and now has a big boy job! He lives in a prime area and spends his time doing numerous things such as raising money for Magnolia Speech School (local school for deaf children), serving ice cream and hanging out with the kids of Boys & Girls Club, hanging out with his friends, playing/watching sports, spending time with family, and traveling.

Speaking of family. His is GREAT! You know how you always want a good set of In-Laws? Well, Mrs. Charlotte and Mr. Randy are amazing parents. They are fun, they are grounded, and most importantly they are supportive. Also in this package is big sister Lauren, her husband and precious baby girl (who by the way, Brian ADORES)

 Swooning yet? Todd says he appreciates my childhood best friend because he is probably the only other male in my entire life that has put up with so much from me but still wants to be my friend. =)

I wanted to make sure Brian knew I was posting him on SUYL so I asked him a few questions for all you single ladies.....

Things he looks for in a girl
Sense of humor, family oriented, enjoys working out and athletics, and ambitious

Three words he uses to describe himself:
1) Driven
2) Social
3)Loyal

He feels that his biggest accomplishment so far in life is all the great relationships he has formed with people. B is a great friend and this is shown by how everyone loves him.

And finally I asked him the most important question:
"Where do you see yourself in 10 years?" his response...
 "Married with a family of my own and doing something I love for a job."

Brian is that kind of guy that you meet and are instantly taken away by. He is good-looking (don't tell him I told you), He has a to-die for personality, and He has such a great heart.
