Lol so happy I have your fun loving spirit by my side in all walks of life. I love u ash. Always n forever. happy birthday bby," she concluded the post.

Apart from work, the two also go on fun trips together. In an interview with Forbes, Tisdale talked about the time she traveled with her girl pals, including Hudgens.

Sharing some of the highlights of traveling in her 20s, Tisdale said, "I’ve gone to Europe, Italy and went on my honeymoon to Bora Bora, which was amazing. But I have to say one of my favorite trips ever was Cabo. I love this one specific hotel there. I took my girlfriend, Vanessa, and Shelly for a girl’s trip."

It was one of those moments in time where she had broken up with her boyfriend and was having a "really rough time. It was just so needed just to be able to go away with your girlfriends. We did everything you probably would do with a guy, but like just did with the girls. We went swimming with dolphins, had dinner night on the beach, and did a movie night."

Looking forward, Tisdale is expecting her first child with husband Christopher French.
