The dinner made me so happy! Homemade guacamole made at our table, coconut prawns, and other cheesy delights! I had the Cuban shrimp fried rice and the ceviche sampler. I can attest that the other girls orders were just as delicious, filled with spices and depth of flavors that we all awed over. My only complaint was that I ate so much I literally thought that I was going to barf!
For the rest of the night, it was just so fun to laugh and enjoy friends that I don't get to spend as much time with. I appreciate those people in my life who accept me for who I am, and who can understand that life is busy. Five years ago we would have been talking on the phone daily and seeing each other twice a week. Although time has passed, it is important to remember that true friends don't require so much attention. They just know that you are there for them no matter what, and time makes no difference in the amount of love you have for them.
Happy Birthday Sweet Liser!
The Sheridans came to the Pacific Northwest for a quick visit. I was beyond thrilled to see one of my dearest friends, Shawna and her family. She is one of the most amazing friends who never judges, and respects everyone. I love and miss her so much - that the little time we share together is so precious to me. It has been incredible to see her grow into a woman, a mother and a caring wife. She has made her life out in New Jersey with her husband Chris and little one Olivia. The big news are they are expecting their second daughter! I am so happy for them, and cannot wait to come visit and meet the newest addition to their loving family.
Till next time dear friend, you are in my heart and thoughts all the time!
