a night with the girls

We had a great time in UT for Christmas this year.  I flew out on Friday and met my beautiful high school friends in SLC for a girls night out.  It was so good to chat about the good old days and talk about our lives and families and how much they've changed.  Two of them have children and it is still so crazy to me that they are mothers.  I've always known them as silly single girls but it only took me a minute to realize we are no longer in high school.  It's funny to think that at one point our lives revolved completely around each other and now our lives are completely separate - a side from the one night a year we get together and completely forget about our husbands and children and go back to our high school days:)

The next morning we went and visited our friend Julie and her lovely family.  She and her husband had breakfast on the table and once again it was so neat to see her interacting with her kids and how amazing she is as a mother.  Her 1 month old, Austin, was so precious and her 3 year old, Brooklynn, was very excited to tell us what she was going to get from Santa.  It was so nice to get together with old friends and I am so grateful for all of the memories we have shared.

The rest of Christmas and New Years to follow.
