One of the things I love and look forward to when going home to the states is seeing friends and visiting and I always cherish that time together! So, while I was in Lake Charles, I got to get together with some close friends from all over- Houston, Baton Rouge, and LC. It was extremely enjoyable to get to catch up with people I use to get to do life with (even during different seasons of my life). Several people I got together with I didn't have my camera.. boo, but there were lots of different dinners, afternoon get togethers, and one on one time at houses!
Because our schedules were hectic a little, some of my visits with friends were squeezed between other arrangements causing us to meet up in various places or even driving half way to meet up.
My friend, Jess, had a baby a few months after we had Brooklyn and we wanted to see each other's babies! We met up at the Galleria in Houston and found a large play area for the kids to play while us moms got to visit. Jess and I were in the same small group at our old church, CCCC, and had gotten extremely close! The big boys had fun together and the babies did great! Loved the visit!
One of my camp friends, Kaitlyn, who lived next door to me in Baton Rouge while we were both going to LSU, and I got together with our kids at a Jump House. I'm so glad we met up somewhere that the kids could play at and we had some quality time together. Kaitlyn had a baby girl since our last visit, and we had Brooklyn so we got to meet each other's daughters. Too cute! The boys had some serious fun together playing and running around together. After eating lunch at Chick Fil A and spending a few hours at the Play House, our visit was cut short when one of her kids got extremely sick. Still, everyone had a great time!
I got to get together and spend an evening with a group of friends of mine from high school at a local shop called Painting with a Twist. We all brought snacks and treats and took a class where we painted a boat in water. The class was a blast and we were all impressed with our artwork! There were a ton of laughs and fun memories made!
