Catching Up

As I mentioned in my last blog, I went home to Arkansas a couple of weeks ago for a few days. My Aunt has just recently had bypass surgery so I went to help her out while she's recovering. It killed me every time I saw her cough or even move for that matter. It looked so painful but thankfully she is doing well and recovery seems to be going as it should.


I've been going home a lot lately because spending time with my family is so important to me and I love seeing how much my nephew has grown since I saw him last.

But this time I got another bonus. My best girlfriend from high school was also in town and so we made plans to get together with our other two friends and catch up. We had so much fun! I loved getting to know who they are today but I was so pleased to see that they haven't changed a bit! It was always the four of us together in school. Especially me and Erin. You would never see one of us without the other. We had a blast getting to know each other again. I'm so proud of who they have all become.

Great memories from High School with these girls:

1. Scorching in the sun at Cheerleading Camp
2. Hanging out in Kym's gym behind her house practicing and gossiping (oh, if those walls could talk!)
3. Breaking my tail bone from endless falls off of pyramids and tumbling spills
4. Decorating the boys sweaty, stinky locker rooms before games
5. Watching Kym tumble at Basketball games
6. Watching Becky kick butt at Powder Puff games
7. Listening to Erin talk about her Dooney and Burke bag

Oh, those were the days!!!

  3. Hey Jill,
    I just read your previous post and wanted to let you know that I can relate. It was a very long process getting pregnant with my first daughter--endless bloodwork, countless (negative) pregnancy tests, fertility drugs, etc... Needless to say, I finally got to be a mom (3 times now!) but I will never forget the heartache of staring at all those negative pregnancy tests or listening to my sweet OB call me to tell me "this wasn't my month" or watching my good friends get pregnant "without even trying!!".
    Have a good cry (a class of wine helps too) and move on to the next month. I'll be praying that you get your baby soon!
