Vivian and Bob Mirabal are friends that I haven't seen in 17 years and because of Facebook I have reconnected with recently. I LOVE FB! She was baptized in Alamogordo, NM on August 16, 1992 while I was serving as a missionary there. They came all the way from San Antonio, Texas to see me for a few days. Lucky me! :-)
This is Vivian and me. Why do I always wait until the day that someone is leaving to take pictures?!?! Hopefully she will send me some of the ones she took while she was here with hers (hint, hint).
At the end of February I flew out for a quick visit to North Carolina. Thanks to my awesome husband and friends (Dave and Susie) for making it possible.
I was pleasantly suprised when I pulled up to Nate and Amy's house to see Connor and Caylyn running toward me with huge smiles and big hugs....it MADE MY DAY. They had a 2 hour delay going to school that morning because of snow...LOL...yeah, right. There was no snow on the ground. NC makes me laugh with it's "snow days".

Rachael and I went to Pilot Mountain for a morning hike. It was pretty cold and the trail we wanted to go on was closed due to clean up that needed to be done after a recent wind storm but we had a nice little hike on "Sassafras" trail....love that name:-).
The trail was actually only .5 miles but I thought it would be more impressive to cover up the "point". It was fun to be with my little sister/best friend again.
The girls all got togther and went to Ruby Tuesday's for lunch. From left to right; Me, Amy, Fletcher (who was starving...poor guy), Rachael, Jocelyn and Jane. I miss not being closer to everyone.
I accidently posted this picture twice and don't know how to erase it...sorry. I guess I just love my neice and nephew.

That is so amazing that you got to see someone from your mission! What a special experience!
ReplyDeleteBec...I was just reading through your recent posts. You are such an awesome Mom, sister, sister-in-law and friend (and I am sure your Mom would say Daughter too)! I look at some of the things you do with your kids and think "why don't I think of things like that?". I'm so glad you have a blog now so we can keep up with what you are up to.
