Old Friends

We've been lucky enough to visit with some old friends this past month or so.  Not old in age, but in the length of time we've known them! 

First, Jennie, Jack and Patrick came into town.  They don't live too far away, so we see them several times a year, but it's always special to get to visit.  They actually came in for the joint birthday celebration, but we got an extra visit in later that weekend at the park! 

 Then a couple of weeks ago, one of my high school friends, Julie, came into town.  We invited her and another friend, Ellen (and her kids), to come for a play date!  It was great to catch up and the kids had a blast!

The day after the "high school reunion play date," it worked out to meet Stacey, Leah and Natalie at the zoo!  They live here, but with busy schedules we don't get to see them as often as we would like. We were so glad that it worked out and we got to spend the morning with these sweet girls!

I love that summer allows for a little bit of extra time to see the friends we don't always get to see.  So sad to see it coming to an end.  Kindergarten starts in 1.5 weeks.  Gaaaak!
