Jenni Visits
February 1st, 2011
Jenni and I have known each other since the 6th grade and were BFF's! Through the years it seems we would have lost one another at some point in time. I went away for the summer after 6th grade, then she moved away (not too far, but far enough not to run back and forth to each others house). I think back on that year of 6th grade and it seems like it lasted for many years. It was the start of a never ending friendship...she was like family. As 7th grade began we moved farther than a weekend trip away. Then they moved past us to the ocean (up in WA state). We always found a way for our parents to let us see one another. What fun times!
We did manage to make it to each others weddings in 1997 and 1998.
Now many years later we are very far from one another and it's rare we get to see each other. The last time I saw Jenni was October 26th, 2003 for her youngest sister Amber's wedding! So 7 years and 3 months later we got together again.
Jenni was in Florida for work and had a free day to hang out. We did a little shop-bonding. Got some shoe's and bags...oh what fun! Had lunch and ice cream (b/c you can do that in February in Florida...we even ate it outside in the sun).
Scott had met us for lunch and took a few pictures of us...
It's VERY weird we have the same hair cut (mostly) and color! She's never ever seen my hair short so she kept commenting on that. Oh how times change!
It was a highlight of a weekend having both my girlfriends visit Heather on Sunday and Jenni on Tuesday.
Thanks for making time for me Jenni...I hope it's not another 7 years till we see each other again! By that time we'll have matching wrinkles not hair!
