Hood Ladies

A few weeks ago, I had the chance to get together with some of my best friends. We've been friends since we were 12 and I'm so lucky to have them in my life. It's like no time has passed. We were laughing, interrogating Angie about her husband's new job as a special agent, looking through old pictures, marveling about who crushed on who and had to use a white board to write the names and amounts of our kids. Fine, it was mostly for my benefit since I thought Tash only had 3 kids. Heh. I of course demanded suggested that we get a picture and Amy gave me a hard time for having it all posed.

Pose this!

Aaaand this!

or even...this??

The person in the front/center always gets the chubby face so I handed that off to Angie since I don't need any help in that department.

Yes, she is actually writing down the ages and names of her children. 

She did it for me...that's true friendship.

Joye was SO happy that Tash and Ang were using her head as a playground. Notice the time in this picture. We had dinner at 7:00...

I was modeling how to wear your hat like the Amish people do... {don't ask, it was late and I was getting punchy}

Busting out my BOXES full of pictures.

I love these beautiful women. It's so weird to me that we have been through so much since being little 12 year olds. From Young Womens to missions, weddings, babies, twins, a spouse with cancer, a spouse as a SPY, basement apartments, houses and most of all--EACH OTHER. I genuinely love these ladies SO much. As if 6 hours of laughing doesn't prove it :)
