last weekend bella & i went to jacksonville with heather, one of my best friends from high school... it is so neat how God has intertwined our lives... we met on the first day of cross country practice in 1996~ our freshman year of high school... heather was a GREAT runner & knew everyone the team because she grew up there... then there is me~ who knows no one (we had just moved to jax a month or so earlier) and can hardly run to save my life... ha! so heather and i became fast friends and have TONS of high school memories... then we both went separate ways to do the "college/after high school" thing... and now we are both married and living in atlanta... so a few months ago we agreed that we should take a road trip w/ bella to jax to visit some friends from high school as well as her parents who are still living in jax. we had a wonderful time!
bella was a great little traveler. we have a dvd player for the car now so she enjoyed some baby einstein and praise baby videos... while in jax we enjoyed shopping with maressa, one of my other best friends from high school, and her two beautiful children~ makayla & reece. then maressa's husband, ben, cooked us a delicious steak dinner. saturday we met pamela, one of my mom's best friends from jax~ who i have kept in touch with~ for lunch. later in the day, miss nancy, heather's mom, played & played & played with bella~ and they both loved every minute of it! then saturday night, hunter, heather's brother, and his wife, christina, had us over for dinner. sunday bella & i met maressa for one more visit and then we all headed back home... i am so thankful for such wonderful friendships! God is so good to us!
