There's no friends like old friends!

Even when they're young old friends! :)

I was so happy to find out that my friend Josh (who i've known since HE was five) was coming to Phoenix for a conference! We packed right up and headed north to visit him. We loved visiting with him and of course, the kids took right to him. When Abby was a baby, Josh was 13, but was the only person who could get her colicky crying under control. As a new mom, I was both mortified and relieved!

We took him on his first visit to Mimi's Cafe... We have one here in Yuma and we all love it. It was wonderful seeing the transformation of that chatty little muscle filled boy turning into a man who is passionate about his own family and new business venture. I'm proud of you and love you lots, Josh! A long time ago, Zach said it best, "We're not really related, but it feels like we are!"

When some people fall off the diet wagon, they do it right! ;) You can tell he shares by the mess on Amelia's face. A snuggle was the least she owed him!

Playing in the hotel after our visit. Marshall and Amelia were talking on phones that weren't plugged in. It kept them busy for quite a long time!

And Abby never leaves home without a book!
