Old Friends

Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some stay for a while, leave footprints on our hearts, and we are never, ever the same.


How much do I love these girls? We all met in the dorm at A&M in 1997 and have seen each other through ups and downs, weddings, funerals, babies, and lots of laughter and tears. It can be weeks or years since we saw each other last and it's like we haven't missed a day.

Amber, Laura, Stephanie, Lindy (circa 1999, I think...our old scanner makes it look older than that, though) in College Station

Lindy, Laura, Amber, Steph, and Stacey (who joined in the fun after the dorm and when we'd all moved on to apartments) in Gruene, Texas

Lindy lives in Washington state now so we were really fortunate to find a weekend when we were both in Texas at the same time. I hadn't seen Amber in years so it was wonderful catching up with these girls in person.

Now that Stacey lives in the Dallas area I don't get to see enough of her, either!

We had a quick reunion in Gruene filled with food and laughter and some wonderful Texas sights.

It wasn't quite warm enough to go tubing but I can't wait to show the boys how to float the river one day!

Stephanie and I rode together from Houston and made two stops in 24 hours at Buc-ees. God bless Texas and Texas-sized pit stops!
