Dinner with GREAT Friends

Way back when Mark and I were dating I had a really crappy room mate that made my life miserable. It was so bad that I bought another girls housing contract just to get away from her. I didn't know anyone in this apartment but anything was better than Daphene. Well I made a great choice because the girls that I moved in with turned out to be awesome. We became great friends instantly and it was a much better environment for Mark and I to hang out in. One of the girls boyfriends (they got married that summer) was even in a couple of Marks classes and also graduated in Accounting. Well it's been a few years and we are all married and a couple of us have a babies even. We just got together one Thursday night to watch The Office like the good old days, but it wasn't on so we just ate and talked and talked and ate. Mark and I love being able to get together with our dear friends. He is no longer in contact with many of his old friends and since they had boyfriends and fiances that pretty much lived there too we all just became one big family. Hanging out with them was like the good old days, just with more crying babies hanging around and much better food.

This full bellied boy is Talmage, Ryan and Kirstens sweet bundle of joy. This kid is only six months old and is already such an athlete. He had to have a ball in his hands at all times. He throws, kicks, catches, shoots, and hits the ball with his bat. He is amazing. Keep your eye out for him.

This is Kirsten and Ryan. They were dating when I first moved in and got married that summer. Ryan can eat more spaghetti then anyone I've ever met. Kirsten can eat what ever she wants and not gain a pound. That might be because she runs like 20 miles everyday.

This is Dustin and Kim. They went to the same high school and even went on a date once too but didn't like each other. Then, when Kim and I were living together the next year they went out again and fell madly in love and were engaged 3 weeks later. Mark and I followed there lead. We got married the day after they did. Kim is the sweetest person you'll ever meet and Dustin is one of the funniest.
Jessica and Steven were their cute newly wed selves but like the idiot I was I forgot to get their pics. Jess and I used to talk all the time about our future lives. She used to tell me about the guy she dated in high school. She was convinced that they were done then but he was able to finally talk her back into dating again.
It's crazy how things turn out. But it's so fun to go back and see were you've been.
