Friends

My best friend Dawn came into town to visit her family this past week and brought her daughter Gabriella with her. Dawn and I grew up together and have known each other since we were about 12 years old, we've kept in touch all these years and the few times we do get to spend together in person (other than talking on the phone) we always treasure. Dawn and Ella came over on Tuesday morning and played and ate lunch with us. It was a great visit of catching up and letting the kids meet each other for the first time.

Emma showed Ella how to play dress up and it was so cute because Emma had on her Belle dress and Ella had on a little tutu, we took a picture of all three kids on the couch together.

Ethan and Gabriella. Actually the two of them are only a month a part and since us Mommies are such good friends we've decided an arranged marriage between the two of them might be in order someday....hmmm....the only problem is where would they live? Ella is in California and Ethan is in Florida.....talk about the other sides of the country!

Such a cutie! My little "adopted" niece Gabriella. We had a great morning and will look forward to the next time they are in town, hopefully then Brian (Dawn's husband) will be able to come too and we can all get together. Note to self - take a pic of Dawn and I next time! :)
