Childhood Memories

In June while we were home visiting family I was able to get together with my childhood friend, Skye. She is still such a great friend to this day and I am so impressed with all that she does and accomplishes. We definately had our fair shares of ups and downs as friends do, but in the end we are still great buds. It was so fun to take a walk down memory lane with her. I drove to her parents house in Mendon (where I grew up) and drove past my old house. It was weird because I felt like I did when I was little kid going up the 'hill' to Skye's house, but the difference this time was that I had a baby girl in the back seat. Its like the past 25+ years flashed in front of me. It was so much fun to sit and have breakfast together and get all caught up. She has me beat in the kiddo count. She has 2 good lookin lil boys who are adorable. Her baby boy is only a couple of weeks older than Sophie so it was fun to see them interact. Although we were only able to spend a couple of hours together it was so worth it! She is one talented little lady! Check out her Etsy shop http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5594317. Isn't great to have such great friends! Everyone needs a "Skye" friend!

You're so sweet! You are a great friend and we have been through a lot, but always admired your strength. Isn't it crazy to think we are mom's? Time really does fly and it seems like just yesterday we were making up some stupid dance. (I was telling Matt about our hockey game in your garage the other day...you totally knocked me over):) fun times! Hey, I actually look kind of tall in that picture! (can you email that to me) thanks Shanda...you're the best!

I always admired the friendship you guys had! Sometimes that kind of friendship is hard to find! My brother in law built a house in mendon, so we get to travel through there all the time, actually, I don't live too far from there myself. It is such a beautiful place!
