Friends

Can't you hear it?
"Friends are friends forever if the Lord's the Lord of them....and a friend will not say never cause the welcome will not end"........okay, you get the picture.

Chris and I have been friends with Jeff and Toby for over 9 years now, but Chris and Jeff have been friends since High school, so that makes like 30 years now...just playin.

But these are the friends you can say anything to and know they will tell you if you are full of it.

These are the friends you want to invite over just to hang out if you don't feel like going out.

These are the friends that you want to take on that cruise you'll go on if you win the lottery.

I cannot tell you how many amazing memories we have shared with them.

From showers, to trips to the lake, birthday parties and even just hanging out in the bario, here are a few memories I had in scrapbooks (sorry they are so fuzzy...it is late!)

They are those friends that you can just pick up with no matter how long it has been. They moved to California before I was pregnant with Chloe. But, we have met a few times for dinner here and there when they are working in town and spent an amazing weekend with them in Austin over New year's 2005.

So, we were so lucky that they had some work to do in Nashville last week because they came to see us!

We were also so excited to meet their little boy Colton, what a doll! We had only seen pictures, but now we got to love on our precious son in law in person. (We can only hope.)

When they left all I could say to Chris was, "it was not enough time!" We love you and miss you guys.
