Friends

My kids have made a lot of friends living here.  Morgan's groups of friends have kind of stayed the same (the Three Amigo's-Morgan , Katie and McKenna) but there has usually been a fourth that has come and been apart of the froup and then has had to move away. First it was Natalie, then Kiley and now Emeri.  Here was the latest 4, McKenna, Katelin, Morgan and Emeri.  These four have had many play dates recently to help Emeri's mom out.  But a week and a half ago, she had to move back down to Arizona.  She recently had a birthday and so they were able to have a party for her and here's the last pic we were able to get of the 4 of them.

 The night before the big move we had Emeri and her mom over for dinner and I just had to get some shots of these 2.  They are such hams when they are together.

 Seriously. . . HAMS I tell ya.

 We miss this girl already.

 Packing up the truck, well actually, taking a break from packing up the truck.  Her mom and dad.

 Aren't they just so pathetic?

 But yet still hammin' it up.

 Had to get at least one more crazy shot before they left.

 Well this last weekend we were able to hang out with some old friends, the Jackson's.   They've got kids our kids' age and so we've tried to keep in touch, you know, in hopes that one day one of our kids will marry into their family so we can be related, you know, lol.

 Here's Morgan and Natalie.  No matter how long they are apart, it's like they have never stopped playing.

 Micah and Spence.  They are seriously 2 peas in a pod.  They even get the same glazed look on their face when they are playing the Wii.

 Mak and Jake and Makhail.  McKenzie and Jacob our only opportunity to be related.  I'm soo bad, sorry.  No seriously though, these two used to play together all of the time.  Now that they are older though, you can see the cootie factor coming into play a little.

 We were able to have dinner with them and Trisha's family.  Trish made Amie's specialty, peppered steak, yum.  We had a really fun evening together, eating, playing nertz and just catching up.  I hope this never stops.  Thanx for chillin with us Amie, we miss you.
