First, I got to stay with my best friend, Bri. I got to finally meet her baby girl, Megan, who was born 2 weeks before Ty. That was helpful because I got my baby fix. :) Thanks Megan for letting me love on you.
Second, I got to see some {I was going to say old, but seeing as how we're all around 30ish, I won't say that} dear friends. Bri, Megan and I had dinner with Jess Ochoa, Jason Flanagen, his fiance Corina and their son Jonah. When I was out there the end of February, Jonah was just a few weeks old and now he's 8 months. He's sp precious. It was good to catch up and the mexican food was awesome {not to mention the margarittas}
We also had lunch with some friends whom I've known forever it seems like. Andrea and 2 of her 4 kids, Kasey (4) & Kobi (2). She sells Cookie Lee jewlery and even rememebered my birthday and brought me some jewlery. Now that's a friend! Thanks girl! I love it. {Our parents have known each other since before we were born, so we've been friends for 30 years--good grief that's a long time} Shannon and her daughter Sophia were able to join us which was great since we seem to always miss each other when I'm out there! Sophia is a precious 1 1/2 year old. So much energy and wanting to learn all about her surroundings. I wish we lives closer so Drew and Sophia could play together. He'd give her a run for her money. {Shannon and I have been friends since the 6th grade...let's see that's....19 years?!?!} And what would a lunch be without my friend Ashley and her daughter Hannah? I love this girl. And her daughter Hannah is her mini me--for real. It was so good to catch up with her. She's one of those people who you could not see for years and then when you do see them again, you pick up right where you left off. I love that. She's also coming to NC next month, so we're planning to meet half way. {Ash and I met freshman year of high school and once talked about traveling cross country on Harley's....remember that, Ash? I also smoked my first cigarette at her house after school. Thank goodness that trend didn't stick...Memories...haha!}
Unfortunatly my friend Alicia couldn't join us because of her sweet teething baby boy, Jack. So we just went to her house after lunch to say hello. It was great to catch up with her and see her new home. It's beautiful, girl. I now you're going to have some great memories there. {Alicia and I met sometime in high school during choir class. She's one of those people that I don't remember ever NOT knowing. She's just always been there....}
Here're some pictures from my time with my friends...
