Spring Break

I am blessed by many amazing friendships... and 4 of them came to see us this week. We all met in college (HPU, baby!) and all got married within a year or two of each other...10+ years ago! So, 6 adults and 7 kids, under one roof, for 3 nights = a barrel of laughs dipped in crumbs, screams, sleepless nights, and a bit of toilet water. Yes, one on the loose loves the potty pool:) BUT...I would do it all again and I hope to soon...every year...twice a year! I love these people and am SO overwhelmed that we got so lucky to have them and keep them forever no matter where we live. Tarrah remarked when she was here, that growing up, she didn't know people did that--stay in touch across the miles. Once you left, you left. But, we are beyond the point where anything will break us apart. Bound by God who placed us all uniquely together. Like family and maybe even deeper. As we decided this week, we're all in it together and would give up our kidneys for one another...Kip already only having one - this really may happen one day, so we're serious:)! We laughed until tears, "dug deep", and watched our children play around us. So, with the theme of thankfulness, I individually thank...

Angi : for my beautiful necklace (you're the gold and I'm the silver!)

Tarrah : for teaching a yoga class in my bedroom, keeping me in stitches, and singing with me

Kip : for being Joseph if only for a moment, and answering our curious questions honestly

Adam : for being the quiet observer I admire you for, and letting us in on a little "__ more" work

Tyler : for being my best friend that never leaves, doing dishes, and unstopping toilets

Maddox : for keeping us smiling even when you are removing spindles from the banister

Myla : for noticing your mom's best friends call her "Ang"

Sage : for being Piper's hero

London : for being so cool and laid back

Mason : for being Porter's new buddy

I love you all and can't wait for our next reunion...July 4th?!?! FIREPROOF!
