Visits and Celebrations

Summer is so GREAT ~ one of the things I love to do is visit with friends and get caught up. One of the benefits of having TIME during the summer days. I love it.

Today I went up to visit a friend, Toni, that lived in our "old neighborhood" ~ our kids are about the same age and we have just kept in touch through the years. We enjoyed each other....talking about kids, grandkids, and life. We laughed. We are connected once again. :)

An added pleasure, I visited a sweet friend of ours, who happens to be a friend of Courtney's ~ Jenny. They grew up together and have stayed close friends. Jenny lives only minutes from my friend Toni, so I couldn't pass up the opportunity to see her and her precious kids. Thanks for just letting us "drop in" on you, Jenny! I loved seeing YOUR neighborhood, house and kids! All are incredible! I loved being with you!

Yesterday, I spent the day with Courtney ~ visiting, enjoying the kids while she ran errands and got ready for Sawyer's 1st b'day! What a fun day it was!!!!
