Yearly Visit

This weekend I was able to have a delightful visit from my High School friends, Holly & Stacy.  Even though we try to get together more often, it seems that we are only able to manage a yearly visit these days.  Hopefully after we’re all done having babies (Stacy is due with twins in May!) and running after toddlers life will slow down and we’ll be able to see each other more often.  🙂

It’s always fun to catch up after such a long break.  I love hearing the stories and memories of the past year for each of them.  And, of course, it’s always nice to be able to get advice or bounce ideas about the different stages of life that we are in.   Plus, I find it sooooo ironic that Stacy is having twins when our other High School friend (Jennifer) also had twins recently.  What are the chances?

Also, as a piece of interesting information:  I grew up in a group of 5 girl friends.  We were friends from 5th grade on up.  We all grew up, got married and started having kids–and you know what we all had first?  A girl!  Yup.  We all had a girl as our first born.  I find that interesting.
