Make new friends, but keep the old..........

Padgett, Carter, Joseph, & Cooper at Challenger 3

The boys and I went to Shelby this weekend to visit our friends and to attend our church. We went to Challenger 3 on Saturday with the Webbers. The kids had fun playing putt-putt while Kelli and I did some catching up. We also rode bumper boats, but we didn't get any pics b/c we were all in a boat and we were soaked! We spent the weekend at their house and ate lunch at Matt's parents after church on Sunday. Eating Donna Webber's cooking is always a treat! It does my heart good to go back to church there. I miss it so much! We still haven't found a church here in T'ville :(
Even more than church, I miss hanging out with Kelli the most! Although, we have done a great job of keeping in touch through e-mail and phone and I know that we ALWAYS will!


Leann, Samuel, Faith, Cooper, Carter, Caleb, Chandler, Kensley, Carter, James, & Casey at the Kings Mountain Park.

On Monday, we met our YMCA friends at the park in Kings Mountain and then went to the pool at the Y. Only 4 out of 9 of our original group were there and look at all of our precious kids! And........Tara is pregnant with #4 and Ginger is pregnant with #6! I can't tell you how much I miss this group of women! These are the kind of friends that you may not talk to every day or see each week, but you know that if you need anything at all, at anytime, you can call either one of them and they'll be right there for you! They are all strong Christians and we all have so much in common....kids same age, faith, most are stay-at-home moms, and of course, the most common thread is that our husbands all work at the Y! We always tried to get together about once a month and had so much fun doing what we do best....eat and talk!
We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and are already looking forward to the next one!
