Lunch with Gap and Lil' Sister Kelly...

On Saturday I met Liz and Chelsey for a LONG overdue lunch reunion. We went to Olive Garden which was, of course, delicious, AND Chels brought her little munchkin, Alli, which was so fun. I seriously could eat that little girl up. She's SOO cute! We had a great time reminiscing on the old days. I guess a little background here might be helpful...Liz and I became friends in 4th grade in Mr. Strong's class. We immediately were inseperable. This was solidified when our parents chose lots across the street from eachother to build houses on. We were in heaven. It was seriously the best thing EVER. Chels was in our ward that we moved into, and she lived just down the street form Liz and I. We were friends with her from before from being in the same classes at school, and such. (I have proof of this. In 3rd grade I broke a picture on her head in a heated round of birthday "Heavy Heavy Hangover." She also lived across the street from my cousins so we walked to 7-11 together a time or two.) Anyways... this fabulous threesome really came together when we all moved up to Cher Apple together.
We spent many an hour together... a lot of my greatest memories from growing up involve these girls. We were borderline rediculous...nicknames, notes, music videos, sleepovers, boys, savage garden, student council, girls camp, academy for girls, family trips, forts, you name it...we did it. And we did it well, might i add. I always am so thrown off when people say they hated Jr. High because I loved it. We had SO much fun. Chels and I were definitely sad when Lizard had to move to Highland.
I really feel like I've always been blessed with such great friends, and these girls are prime examples. I LOVE EM'! We also got to see Jaclyn (Dodson) Gunter who works at the OG. She was also a really good friend all growing up, so that was fun.
Chelsey's baby is seriously SO cute. I wanted to put her in my pocket and take her home with me!!
Let's not go so long before the next meet up...ok??
