Spring Time


We have been having the best weather here in NWA. Spring is one of my favorite times of year for two reasons 1) its not too hot or too cold 2) all the flowers and trees start to bloom.  Two of my friends and I decided to take advantage of this wonderful spring weather we have been blessed with. We had a little picnic in the Bentonville Square. It was so much fun. The weather was perfect and hanging out with your friends is always a good thing. The only down fall is it is messing with my allergeries. :/ But I'll live! I'm looking forward to more outdoor activities to come! YAY SPRING!!

Kimby

Kimber was probably one of my first friends when I moved to Arkansas. She is one of my only High School friends that I'm still close to. I couldn't imagine my life without her. She always puts a smile on my face and is so fun to be around. We have been through a lot togehter and I know that distance doesn't change anything.

She lives in NC so I don't get to see her as often as I would like and I miss her sooo much. But we make sure to keep in touch. I have realized that it can be hard to keep friendships and relationships going and strong when you are miles apart. We have to be intentional and put forth effort, but it is so worth it. I am so thanful for her and all the fun times we have shared. And, I guess her husband is pretty cool too (haha Addy you know I love you)

So Kimby I miss you and I can't wait to hug your neck and hang out again soon. love ya and enjoy a little stroll down memory lane :)

 Great fun we had at Beach Camp!!!

 we totally dominated at this basketball tournament haha
 This was right after they got engaged. Adam set it all up so I could take pictures of their engagment. Very Thoughtful :)
Love this sweet forever friend of mine.

Tuesday Nights

This post is all about my friend Carmen! Where to even begin?..... I don't know exactly how our Tuesday night dinners started, but boy am I grateful for them. Every Tuesday night I go over to the Weavers for a wonderful home cooked meal and fun time with my wonderful friends. Carmen is one of the best cooks ever, if you don't know this already. I always enjoy trying out new recipes with her :)

Some nights we just talk the night away, other nights we will watch a TV show or two, and other nights we play some games. But whatever we do, we have such a fun time. You know you have found a special friendship when you can talk for hours and lose track of time. And really, how often do you find people who share your EXACT taste in music (I can tell you it's not very often)

Andrew is the king at making specialty coffee drinks. I get the privilage of enjoying them from time to time. Who needs Starbucks when you have Andrew!

And one of my favorite parts of Tuesday nights is getting to spend time with my favorite 2 year old. Saul is such a blast to be around. We play pretend, we color, read books, play cars etc. He is such a smart little boy. Wise beyond his years for sure. I'm sure he will always hold a special place in my heart.

So pretty much. Tuesday nights are one of the highlights of my week. I always know I have that special time with my speical friends to look forward to :)

 1st: Evertime I look at this picture I can't believe how small he was. 2nd: look at our hair!!
 Great memories of donating our hair to Pantene Beautiful Locks
 Halloween 2011 with my favorite little robot. :)

So Carmen...I'm not sure how our Tuesday nights started but I am so grateful for them and for your friendship  :) love you and your sweet family!

Tulsa Trip

This weekend I had the privilage of going on a little weekend trip with some of my besties! We had such a wonderful time. Lot's of talking, laughs, and shopping. We are already planning our next trip. It is always fun to get away for some girl time :) Here are some pictures from the weekend for your enjoyment.


                                  Gotta Love these gals!
 Jessica and I got to see our sweet friend Mary who lives in Tulsa. It was so great to catch up with her. She and her husband are in the process of moving to Italy to work with Campus Crusade! How awesome is that ?!?!?!

Looking cute before our night out :)

Thank you God for great friends!

Wolf Pack

I wanted to take some time and blog about some of my favorite people. The frist post goes the "Wolf Pack" yes, yes, I know we are silly haha. These three girls have become very special to me. I feel blessed to know them and privalged to spend so much time with them. We talk basically everyday and we even do a bible study together. I feel truly blessed to have friends that are all striving to learn more about Jesus and to keep you accountable. And not to mention some of my favorite people to be around.  I seriously couldn't imagine my life with out them! They each hold a very special place in my heart. So this post goes out to my wolf pack....
This is wolf pack member Jessica! I have known her the longest and she is just the best. This was when she took me to my first Razorback game. This was the first time for me to call the Hogs and finally become a true fan. Yay. If I don't spend a weekend with her it just feels strange. Not to mention that she has the cutest boy on the planet earth! 6 years ago I never would have thought we would be so close...but boy am I glad we are :)

Sweet Sweet Nikki. Where to even begin. Nikki is one of the kindest, most thoughtful, talented people you will ever meet. She is so fun to be around and I love that I can talk to her about anything! I am so blessed by her sweet friendship. I have so many fun memories with Nikki. I am so thankful to have her in my life. I couln't ask for a better friend.
Donnally is my newest friend. But I feel like I have known her forever. We became close friends fast.She is one of the greatest people I have ever had the chance to get to know. I am so happy that she moved here because she just completes our little group :) She is such a blast to be around and so GORGEOUS. I am looking forward to all our memories to come.
Here we all are after one of our Mondy Bachelor Watch Parties. Love you girls :)
