A month of get togethers!

Okay--December is always a crazy month, but it was made even crazier for me because I went to a bunch of old friend reunions/get togethers! It was SO MUCH fun to see all my old friends! Some of them I hadn't seen in 10-15 years! I reminded Kevin of what a wonderful saint of a husband he was for being so patient this month. He was very supportive and happy for me to get together with so many long lost friends.

Well, I first got together with some of my old 30th ward (the ward I grew up in) friends. We had so much fun growing up together. They are and will always be some of my most cherished friends.

Benjamin, Me, Kelli, Melodi, Heather, Becky, Natalie (we were missing Andrea and Kristen) Next I got together with all the friends who lived on the cul-de-sac I grew up on. We all agreed we had the best childhood EVER! Playing night games, jumping on the trampoline, making up plays and programs for our parents, playing in the gully behind our houses, walking down to the store to get candy....and the list goes on... I love my childhood friends! Thanks for the memories!

And finally, I got together with another group of high school/Junior High/Elementary school friends. We got together because our good friend, Melissa was in town and I hadn't seen her in like 10 years! We had so much fun and talked and laughed all night long at the Cheesecake Factory.

Me, Melissa, Melodi, Liz, Kristen
