The Best Day

Today, I took these two crazy girls to Sanford to visit our "old home".

(This is one of their favorite ways to play now!)

So...for the most part, I'm okay with being here and not there. Then we finally get to go see our friends in Sanford for a lunch date and all of the old feelings come right back up to the surface. I miss our Church, our town and my friends...SO much.

We had lunch with my mommy-friends and four of our five children. It was pure bliss! The children behaved themselves and I had SO MUCH FUN.(Ms. A and I tried to get pregnant at the same time, but our girls ended up being 5 months apart!)

(Maggie & Christopher. Erik was getting a haircut and his mom, Ms. K spent her birthday lunch with us!)

After our lunch, we went to see Gammy Gladys in her new house! Since her husband passed away last year, she decided to move into a maintenance-free community. Her old yard was too much work for her. Maggie didn't miss Paul quite as much as she has in our other visits since he passed. The house was beautiful and Maggie took no less than 35 pictures of it. This was my favorite one!

Ellie loved Gladys from the minute we walked in and I think she really enjoyed her 8th visit to Sanford! Big Daddy & I often wonder what Ellie & Gladys would think of each other. Today, it was definitely love at first sight!!
