Just recently my family has been blessed to reconnect with some of our old friends the Dorts. Aaron and I used to be inseparable from Craig and Mandy. We used to have game nights, go bowling, go to the races, late night swims, movies, etc. I have looked back through some of our old pics and we all noticed one thing... we always had a drink in our hands. But, this was all before we had kids. This was before we had someone else in our lives that we had to put first. It was the carefree days of just doing something because you wanted to and you didn't need to think about bed times, getting a little one to take a shower, nap time (oh how I miss nap time), and going to a kid friendly restaurant.
Anyways back to what I was talking about... we were inseparable until they had to move away because of Craig's job. Then it happened, Mandy got pregnant and about 6 months later I got pregnant. Our lives would be changed forever (and for the better).
Fast forward about 6 years (add a trip to Andy's Frozen Custard) and tada- we are best friends again. The girls act like they have know each their entire lives and Caitlin just adores their son Sam. I am so glad Aaron finally has a boy-friend to hang out with again.
Now if I could just figure out how to be a SAHM like Mandy I would be in heaven.
