A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart and can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words.

Proverbs 18:24
A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother
Proverbs 27:17
As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another
Proverbs17:17
A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity

wonderful to have stayed friends all those years. Looks like you had a good time
Friendships are real blessings, especially when they have survived many years. I can almost feel the joy and happiness you all experience being together. The years have certainly been good to everyone of you. Good quotes.
How wonderful! Friends are always treasures, however, lifetime friends have their own special category I think. 🙂

How precious to have life long friends, I hope it was a happy birthday
I have always loved this quote
{A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart and can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words}
I can't say it out loud without tearing up.
Your friends look like so much fun.
That's wonderful that you have such long lasting friendships with these ladies. All of you look great and it shows that you were having fun being together. Love that first quote.
Friends are indeed one of lifes best blessings!
Friendship…my bff lives 4 hours as most of my firends do away but so glad that we can keep in touch with cell phones ………
The photos of you and your friends are lovely. There's nothing like girlfriends that you've loved forever, is there?
Wonderful post! True friends are real treasures.
Hi, I'm visiting from Simple Pleasures. This is a beautiful post. Great photos…great quote and Scripture passages about friendship.
I, too, shared about friendship today, so you and I are very definitely on the same page in our thoughts this week.
Blessings,
Patti
What a blessing lasting friendship is! I love the pix and post!
You are so very lucky to have such a fabulous group of long time friends! I have known my best friend since I was two years old… so that is a long time.
Yes, that quote is so true. I just spoke to my grade school friend this week. She lives in Tenn. now, so far away. I do hope we get to visit again. She still had a few cousins left on LI.
Great to see you with your dear friends!
Glad you told us Susan was dressed for her daughter's wedding because I THOUGHT she was a tad overdressed for a birthday luncheon!;>) You "girls" are all just beautiful..each one as pretty as the next. And, when you all get together don't you feel like just "girls" once again? xo Diana
This makes my heart happy! I pray for such wonderful friendship in my own life!
Such joy in true friendship! I see
it in all your eyes. I so treasure
the precious women I have known for
so many years too.
Enjoyed this sweet post, Lorraine.
What a beautiful heartfelt post,LDH, and wonderful Simple Pleasure. I loved the unknown quote. One way I measure true friendships is in this way…. We always pick up right where we left off, no matter how long it has been since last we met. Many blessings to you and your friends. You girls are so beautiful.

Lifelong friends- that is a true gift calling for a wonderful celebration. May you always have wonderful moments together and sweet memories.
Beautiful post!!
Time spent with wonderful friends is always a good thing. All of you are looking so much lovelier with each passing year. 🙂 Best wishes to one and all, Tammy
It always means so much to me when friends from YEARS are with me at special times.
This was soo sweet.
We have a traditional b'day meal with longtime friends…at a Japanese Hibachi Grill. We laugh and remember the last time funnies!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
