Make new friends, but keep the old...

We got to visit with some old but good friends this weekend! We stayed with Shelley & Steve in Yucaipa and Jared & Holly in Long Beach and got to meet their beautiful babies. Our daughters were all born within 6 months of each other! It is hard to think back to the time when we were all unmarried and living in the same ward at the Glenhood. Ha ha, those were the days. :) (A huge thankyou to you guys for hosting us and making us so comfortable! It was great to see you!)

And these are some farewell pictures of our best friends in Las Vegas. Jeanie and Devin are moving to Michigan for ortho school and we are goingto miss them so much!!! They saved us (me) from utter despair when we moved to Vegas two years ago and felt so lonely. We have had many game nights, walking adventures, trips to the mountains or parks, and shared meals. It has been nice to have close friends here where we are far away from family. I remember my mom telling me to "Make new friends, but keep the old. One is silver and the other gold."

Stay tuned for more pics of our California adventure!
