Summer is usually a time of seeing old friends. We almost always have a get together with some of our friends from Provo. This year didn't work out so well for me. Once I got all the kids in the car I went to start it and... dead. It took about an hour and a half several phone calls to Jason and - luckily - my neighbor's brother-in-law (who just happen to be in town (only man home during the day in my neighborhood)) to get us on the road. Then we had the 30 minute drive to Utah County. by the time we got there, everybody else had left. Except for the person we had come to see - Karen and her boys were there. They were one of the few people who were in the 169th ward as long as we were (6 years... wow, too long). Our boys are the same ages and Brock SAID he remembered Ethan - although they hadn't seen each other since they were 2. We had a fun time - hopefully next year we can see a few more.
Noah, Brock, Ethan, Alex
Later in the month the girls in my family got together with the girls in the Ewell family. These are some of our oldest friends. My mom and their mom met when they were just young mom's with 3 girls each all about the same age. Perfect friendship right? All of us became friends and even though they have moved all across the country the past 15 or so years, we have still managed to stay close.
Here are the 6 girls. Katie, Me, Heather (right in between me and Katie in age), Brittany (she is 2 years younger then Ashley), Ashley (my sister), and Ashlee (their sister) - they are the same age and have the same name. I am telling you - our families were meant to be friends.
And the whole gang
