BFF 4-ever

This has to be one of my favorite pictures of the three of us. (and little dave) I think this is Halloween 1987?
These are my real BFF's. They came out to visit me in little ol' Ohio. They have been so good to me ever since were were in 2nd grade at Cypress Elementary School. It has been 2 years since we have seen each other but it felt like yesterday we were singing Happy Birthday to Quinn.

I don't know how I managed to NOT get a picture of the three of us together. Maybe juggling 2 kids between 3 women was too much for me??? They were such a great help! I miss you guys already!

Ben was out of town for the week-end so we came up with the girliest thing we could think of: butterflies at the Franklin Park Conservatory.

We had so much fun together and my girls will never forget the fun they had with their new friends!
K. I. T.
Have a great summer!
Love,
Your Best Friend

(p.s. bec, I hope we can be better friends next year)

Leap for the Ligars

We did it. We (maybe just I) relived my high school cross country years. My best friend Quinn was ALWAYS way faster than me. I always wished I could beat her. I invited her to a friendly 5k fundraiser for our Boy Scouts 12 years after our last cross country meet. Little did she know that all I wanted was to run her into the ground. I had been training for over 3 months just so I could smoke her at the race. It would have helped me if I have told her all these years I was holding a competitive grudge. Quinn didn't even train. In fact she has a slight stress fracture from her NYC Marathon from last year.

Here she is beating my home teacher. Go Quinn!

All I could do was maybe tie with her at the end of the race.
(Someone had already finished and decided to finish the race again with one of her best friends)

Someone here is a little too into this race!
Thanks for the good times!
