Old Friends and New Buddies

We were so lucky these last couple of weeks... My best friend from high school rolled into town for a visit!  She and her family live in Houston and we rarely get a chance to actually see each other.  Granted we get to talk on the phone all the time- but sometimes... it's just not the same!  

We got together whenever we could (I had to share with her family), which was good- since all the kids got along swimmingly!  

We went to the park together... Where Kate and Becca promptly buried Barbies in the sand...

And my boys drug little Megan and Allie over for a baseball game...

We had so much fun that we got together again to go on a hike up Donut Falls...

and we visited a splash pad and then we ditched the kids and got together with another amazing friend for a late dinner.  The Huffs were here for two weeks and it just wasn't enough!

But I will say that I think it's pretty amazing that we were so close in high school and have stayed that way through college, marriage, kids and crazy jobs... I am so blessed to have such an amazing friend!
