A Smackeral Of Life

Let's be honest for a moment shall we? Having a Best Friend Forever is pretty amazing....BUT it is 10x better if your best friend also happens to be a family member!! Don't believe me?

Cousins and best friends <3 ____________________________________________________________ #1: You Grow Up Together Morgan and I are just about one month apart in age.
