tHe bLaB is CoMinG to tOwN!!

allow me to introduce you to the blab.

these are my college roomies. my fabulous college roomies. and they are coming to kansas city in two days!

you might be asking yourself "why the silly name?" well let me tell you. at a&m we were all on staff with fish camp (a freshmen orientation program). since 4 of the 70 people on staff all lived together, our house became the fish camp hang out. someone decided it was too hard to say "let's go hang out at angie, linda, b-shaw & lev's (two kristi/ens = going by our last names. bradshaw - b-shaw; levrets - lev) house. so we were dubbed the BLAB.

B is for Bradshaw

meet kristen bradshaw. she is a pool and spa show event planner living in dallas, texas. when you first meet her she is a little quieter and reserved, but don't let that deter you. this girl is hilarious...in kind of a weird way. she makes up songs, does eep opp orkin, makes up weird noises, weird faces and weird dances. i love her for all of these weird things, but i love her especially because she is observant...she always notices if you are upset, anytime you go out with her you get a lot of attention from guys...she's beautiful, she always made me work out in college and she makes up fake boyfriends with you when your other two roomies are out with their real boyfriends.

L is for Levrets

that's me. in case you don't know, my maiden name was Levrets. clay changed us from the BLAB to B-FAB.

A is for Arredondo

meet linda arredondo. she is a...hmm...i don't know what she is called...she works for a brokerage firm in austin, texas. let me tell you, you want this girl as your friend. she is a good one. linda is so selfless and will do absolutely anything for anyone. like b-shaw, this girl likes to get crazy. the two of them together...well it's quite a sight. they are hilarious. i also love my linda because i can always count on her to sit on the couch and eat a lot with me. once we watched all 27 episodes of the oc season 1 in one weekend. yes, that was a lot of sitting on the couch and eating chuy's fajitas. we actually had to take a break and go walk around her apt. complex because our bodies were so tired of sitting.

and last but certainly not least...

B is for Burns

meet angie burns. she is an advisor in the student life dept. at sam houston state university in huntsville, texas. i love this girl. we met the beginning of her freshmen year and have been friends ever since. angie is getting married in june and the B-FAB will soon become B-FAT. thanks a lot trey! but let me tell you...trey is a lucky guy. she cooks, she cleans...a lot, she creates, she serves others. what i especially love about this girl is that she is always the life of the party. i can't tell you how many times she has done the "run in front of the car & pretend it hits you" trick...even for random people we don't know. she will do anything to make you laugh.

bradshaw, levrets, arredondo, burns = the blab

we are all pretty different, but let me tell you, when we are together it is non stop fun. now all three of my friends are quite the life of the party and extremely good looking, so this isn't such a shock, but we seem to attract a lot of attention when we are together. people in restaurants stare, others have tried to become the fifth member of the blab and of course we make friends in foreign countries. the first time we went to mexico together we made lots of friends and became known as "texas". as we walked around the resort, we would hear people shouting "texas!" at us. the last time we went to mexico, we became friends with all the resort workers. water aerobics, bingo, night life, we made lots of friends.

we don't talk every week and we don't see each other all the time, but when we are together it is non stop fun. clay's a little worried, but he has to be initiated sometime!


i love my girls. they have blessed my life for the past 10 years and i thank my Jesus for such wonderful friends. i can't wait for our kansas city weekend!
