My best friend since 5th grade came to visit us this past weekend. We like to retell the story of how we met over and over and it never gets old. So here it is: It all started at Sierra Vista Elementary school and a game of dodgeball. We were on the same team and as the game progressed we were the only ones left on our team. A boy on the other team pegged me and I got out, next was Jamie. After the game we walked over to the drinking fountain and talked about our epic loss :) And a friendship was born. Jamie lives in Austin, TX now, so we don't get to see each other as much as we would like, but our friendship is one that lasts no matter the distance. I love her to pieces and am so grateful for our friendship over the years.

We went to the pumpkin patch and enjoyed some hot cider and donuts. The boys loved the ride out to the pumpkin patch. We picked out some nice gourds and pumpkins to decorate our front porch (the squirrels or raccoons are enjoying them though!) We had a fun visit going downtown, and to the farmers market, watching movies and eating at Crazy Jim's and the Arbor Brewery. The time went by too fast! Elijah and Jacob were so sad to see her go.
