Oh What a Reunion 5-26-2011

What a wonderful life!  I traveled back to Texas last week because my dear friend Stacy was going to go through the temple for the very first time.  Not only was the event wonderful but the reunion was such a blast.  Our friends Marilyn (Pennsylvania) and Angi (California) also flew in for the event.   It was a memory that I will never forget.  It was a special day for me to be in the temple with dear friends that I love like sisters and to see Stacy take this step.  I have such a testimony of the temple and the promises made there.  I am so grateful for my membership in the church.  It has always blessed my life and the lives of my children. I know it will bless Stacy's life as well. 
 
 This is outside the temple.  Back row: Lauren, Krista, Barbie, Christine, me, Raleen, Angie, Monica, Coleen and Tracy.  Front row: Maureen, Angi, Stacy and Marilyn.


I adore these women.  Me, Krista, Marilyn and Stacy.
What a fun week.  We laughed, we ate, we laughed and ate some more! 

Lunch at Chili's after the temple.
The band  (7 car Pile Up) came over to Stacy's one night so the "girls" plus Rich could practice.  It was so nice to just sit and visit and listen to them practice. 
I took some time out to go see one of my dear friend Mary Lee.  She is Mrs. Dr. Doolittle.  She loves animals and always has a new pet.  This is one of her beautiful tortoises.

Nathan is one of Grant's very best friends.  They have played together since they were tiny.  Grant sure misses Nathan and asked me to go see Nathan and take a picture of him. 

Stacy's son Axel has his mission call to the West Indies...and will be leaving in Sept.
 He is so excited and we are all excited for him.  Here he is getting his papers
 ready to mail so he can get his FBI clearance to enter some of the places in his mission. 
He was so good to us and so much fun to have around. 

Just visiting...Krista, Barbara and Marilyn
On the morning before we flew out we went to see one of Marilyn and my old neighbors Renee.  Marilyn is much closer friends with Renee but it was a lovely visit and so much fun to see her and the old neighborhood. 
  I am grateful for dear friends.  It is "as if" we had never left.  the feelings of love, friendship and sisterhood never skipped a beat.  After such a great week for a wonderful event...I am not sure what any of us could pull off for a reunion like that again...but oh what a reunion it was!
