Kindred Spirts

I have been blessed with many incredible friends during my lifetime, and the gals above are definitely some of the best.  We've lived and worked together, experienced major highs (marriages and babies) and supported each other through the lows (deaths, miscarriages and other drama).  Over the past twenty plus years we have lived in different states, coasts and even countries - but when we do manage to get together it's as if we were never apart.  These girls know me and definitely love me just as I am, warts and all! 

It's hard to believe, but they drove more than 15 hours (each way!) to spend Friday night, Saturday and Sunday morning with us.  We were too busy gabbing to get much done, but we did manage to make our way to the gorgeous Acadia National Park.

The funny (or perhaps dangerous!) part of the weekend was to see how much these two peas in a pod enjoyed each other's company:

Penny's 9 year old Ellie and my 8 year old Annabel were joined at the hip the entire weekend.  They are definitely kindred spirits.  It's Friendship 2.0!
