So Fun!!

This weekend I had a chance to go down to St. George for Katie's baby shower. She is having a little girl and naming her Loryn. We were all roommates and friends in college at some point. As one got married another moved in. We laughed and talked, and talked until 3:00am in the morning...I felt like we were really back in college a couple of time during the night. (Except where was the Mountain Dew :) It was so fun to talk and see what everyone had been up to in the last 5 years. We have all stayed in contact throughout the years. Heather moved to Florida for a while, KT & Lindsay moved to St. George (Yes we are all jealous) and Wendy and I are true Utah County girls. I sure never thought I would say that. Now Heather is living in Cedar City while her husband is pursuing his masters.... and the rest re-main the same.

For my record...
I met Heather at waffle night at the apartments by Columbia Lane (Mutual Guy friends)

I met Lindsay through my friend Mckinzey (who I played softball at UVSC with ) sister-in law Krystal (who was from Monticello & so was Lindsay).

I met Katie through Heather who met Katie working at Nuskin....

I met Wendy in summer school at UVSC in a Early Childhood Development class...

Wow and there it is. Lindsay thanks for letting us all stay at your house.

Girls I recommend this to all of you. Having Girl friends, Sisters, Moms, Sister-in-laws, Mother-in -laws & grandmas...Is so amazing. The connection that women have is awesome and such a great support. I put a challenge to every girl out there to look up someone they haven't talked or heard from in a while... someone you have been thinking about (because I know everyone has someone they have wondered about.... how they are, where they are, or just simply how they are doing) and go out of your way to contact them, do something nice for them, send a letter, e-mail. ect...YOU BE CREATIVE>>>>>>The rewards are great!

I was also so glad to come home to my little family of 2. I loved the college days and every now and again it is so great to
relive them and catch up with old friends....But then I quickly realize how blessed I am to have a wonderful husband who treats me so good and loves me and Kali so much. I am so glad I have them in my life...I hope I can always live everyday to the fullest.

I love it!! You're such a great friend and I'm so glad we had more than a couple of hours to talk, although I did intend to catch up on my sleep rather than stay up 'til 3am! Oh well, it was worth it.
