There once was a group called "The Fab Four." Yes, if your mind went to The Beatles, you would be correct. However, a few decades post those guys, the real Fabulous Four emerged in a small town in SW Missouri circa 2005. As the story goes, there were four girls at Bolivar High School who constantly found themselves together and causing trouble changing the world for the better.

Honestly, these girls made my high school days the best that they could have been! There are very few memories that I have that do not include these girls. And unlike some friendships which fade away after high school, these three continue to bring me so much joy through their friendship!

| Prommmmm. So fun. |
After high school was over, 1/2 of the Fab Four went to Arkansas to become Hogs while the other 1/2 took off to Mizzou to become Tigers. The 5-hour distance was an obstacle we had to conquer in order to continue seeing each other, but throughout those years, we all managed to squeeze in a few trips each way.

So where are they today?
Lieren - Married to Cody (who we all absolutely adore! He is a twenty-something version of her father... funny how that works. Ha!), Living in Springfield finishing up her teaching degree (yay, fellow teacher! I pray we get to work at the same school someday!! I'm sure she'll need my help as her assistant softball coach.)
Lindsay - Living in Iowa using her Journalism degree from Mizzou, Making gorgeous music & going to be famous someday (she's tried out for American Idol & The Voice and I know if she continues to pursue music as a career she could make it! She has lots of videos on youtube - lindsaylare - look that girl UP!)
Jackie - Living in NW Arkansas, Making the BIG bucks Working at Tyson foods plucking chickens using her like 3 degrees she got while we were at Arkansas - Accounting, Finance, and Poultry Studies, Continuing to update her adorable closet and send me pics of the cutest outfits ever! (So jealous!)
Me - Hopefully you already know... Married to Tyler DeTimothy DeClue (what he used to say when he was little), Living in BoMO, Teaching Bison how to sing, annnnd Blogging!
It is my hope and prayer that someday we'll all be back in the same place. I need to be on the look-out for a super hot, eligible bachelor for Jackie that is committed to living in SW Missouri and will convince her to come back... And KY3 needs to hurry up and hire Lindsay as a news anchor. Can anyone help me out with that?!
