Grace Day

What a great day today was! I got to spend the day with all my old friends from my high school church youth group - it's been almost five years since I've seen any of them! These are the people who for a period of time were always by my side. We spent so much time together as a group and not just at church. We would normally spend all day Sunday together - going out to eat, hanging out, playing cards... It was a great group of friends and I have missed them.

When I first got there, it felt a little awkward, but after a few, it was like we just saw each other yesterday. We hung out at Lisa's for a bit and then went bowling. I was so excited - I got a strike on my first frame. But, after that, I tanked and only bowled a 86. But in my defense, it's been at least two years since the last time I bowled.

It was amazing to see God hard at work in our lives. Some of us are married, there are babies, babies on the way. Some are still in school, some are working, some are stay at home mommies. Even though God has changed us so much, deep down, we are really all still the same.

Below, I have posted a few pictures - old and new. And let me just say, that I can't wait to see everyone again - and lets not wait 5 more years!

It cracks me up to see old pictures of Andy! Ha! Sorry I missed it...but just couldn't justify making the three hour trip by myself and then drive two separate cars back!
