A Day with My Bestie and Our Guys!

Dana and I met in the fall of 1995 at Williams Baptist College. Yes, Dana--that makes us friends for 14 years. Holy cow, 14 years. I can not believe that it has been that long. We have had some times of great closeness and a time where we our conversation lagged, but earlier this year Dana sent me an e-mail and I am so grateful that she did. See, about three weeks later my Grandma passed away. In spite of our lack of conversation, Dana came to her burial and that meant the world to me. From the day of that first e-mail (which I still have), we have picked up right where we left off. It is like it was when we were at WBC. We will chit-chat all throughout the day thanks to e-mail, unlimited texting and Facebook. I think without Dana's friendship, Grandma's passing would be harder on me than it has been. Grandma always told me that Dana was a nice girl and that I could always count on her. She was right. 14 years later, we are both married and Dana and Greg have a little boy named TJ. I am thrilled to be called "Auntie Brandi"! I personally think he the smartest little boy in the world! We got together a couple of weeks ago in Jacksonsville for me to take some fall family pictures and so we could hang out! We had a great time, laughed plenty and ate yummy Carino's! Here are a few pictures I took! Enjoy!
