Idaho Friends

Okay, I'm pretty sure this wraps up our two week vacation! Our last week was spent visiting old friends, and the lucky thing about being there during the holidays is that we were able to catch people that live out of town too. It was a lot of fun to see everyone!

Me and an old Jr High friend Anna. She had just had a baby boy Boston just a few months ago, so this was the first time I was able to see him. What a cutie! He's an adorable baby too, lol!

Anna's husband DJ with Gigi. The kids, especially Skyler really love that dog.

Anna and Boston

My old Bannock House friend April, with her daughter Jordyn and my daughter Jayda. We were pregnant and had our babies only months apart from each other. They were fun to watch play now that they are older and the same age.

April, Jordyn, and Jason, who also worked at the Bannock House with us, good times. Lots of late night therapy sessions at Denny's together back in those days!

My friend Suzanne and I at Texas Roadhouse (we were supposed to be at the movies, but we wanted to be able to chat much more!). I actually met Suzanne through her husband who was a fellow student and coworker. We hit it off really well and all four of us became great friends.
Jacob and Suzanne on New Year's Eve, just seconds before midnight! This was our third time spending New Year's with each other. We always have so much fun!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Jacob and Gavin

Me and Gavin. Suzanne had just barely had him before we left, so it was so nice to get to see him again now that he's a bigger boy.

On our way to shop for New Year's treats!


Jayda and Ellie. Ellie is Kristine's daughter, another friend that was pregnant the same time I was. Her daughter is only a month older and they are so cute together. I love how they are both in princess dresses!

Me and Kristine, a friend since we were twelve!

Me, Janna, Audrey and Jayda. Janna is another old friend. They used to live right across the street from us, and if we needed anything, we literally could shout out the window at each other and help was on the way. We really miss being their neighbors. Luckily, they moved out of the neighborhood too and now have a sweet new house in the old neighborhood I grew up in.

Me and Heather, another Jr High friend and partner in many of our HS shenanigans! They live in Layton now and fortunately we were able to stop by their place for dinner on our way to the airport. It was so fun to see them again, we hadn't seen their family in a long time.

Jayda, Carter and Ashton playing a gameboy. They got along really well.

Heather and Jaron

Lily, isn't she adorable!

Heather and Jaron's daughter Emmaline. Heather tells me that her and Jayda were very similar at the same age (sweet, but uh, very busy and independent!). Now she is an absolute angel...which gives me hope!
