Friends in far places...

You know you're loved when your best friend drives 12 long hours with three small children in 1 huge SUV (which breaks down on the way) to get to the great Northwest to see you! Meet Mel....one of the sweetest friends in the world and greatest moms in the universe. We grew up next door to each other, with each other, in spite of each other and because of each other. Now that is friendship.
We went to Cannon Beach, Seaside, talked, played, ate and just hung out together. Steve and Mel
Bella and Ellie in the tidal pools. The girls loved, loved, loved being together!

Steve and Kent.....very, very patient men. Not that we are THAT bad.
One of the greatest blessings in my life are our friends. Friendship is a priceless thing to me. So having my friend who has known me since I was eight come to see us made our year! An old friend......they know your whole story and still love you.
