More Idaho Friends

My Uncle Mart came over so that he could meet Isha. When I was little and I would go places with him people always thought he was my dad. I am sure it is because of the blond hair. Here is my cousin, Kaylee, Uncle Mart's daughter. She is going to have a baby at the end of this summer. A little girl!! I am so excited for her. I hadn't seen her in the longest time so it was great to see her and to see her house she just moved into. She is in the process of getting the babies room ready. That is such a fun time. Of course we had to stop in and see Calvin, he is one of my mom's friends. He owns his own car lot. Jai is always asking me if I think Calvin could help him get an Acura NSX. Poor Jai and his endless quest to have another sports car. I'm sure Calvin could help him get the car of his dreams, but just not for the price I am willing to pay. I just hope that some day when it is Isha's turn to get her first car that she finds someone as nice and honest as Calvin to buy it from!! Maybe we will just have to buy the car from Calvin and have a road trip home! I know that is some serious thinking ahead. Dana came over the night before we left to get in another visit with us. Unfortunately Gordon was unable to make it over, but we did get a chance to see him earlier in the week. Dana and Gordon are friends of my parents. I have spent many nights eating pizza and watching Survivor with them. I am so glad that Isha was able to meet so many of the people in my life from when I lived in Idaho. I miss them all so much.

Isha Meets The Best Girls

While we were in Boise we were able to visit Heather. She is one of my closest friends from way back. We actually knew each other in elementary school, but became good friends in high school. We used to carpool to school every morning and that is where we got our nicknames Special H and Special J. Isha and Amelia are 3 months apart, but they are the same size. It was so cute when they first met because Amelia immediately started giggling as soon as she saw Isha. Heather also has an older daughter, Hadley, who just turned five and is headed to kindergarten in the fall. It is hard to believe she is so grown up. She is a great helper with the little ones. Here is a shot with Heather and all the gang! Hadley wanted to hold Isha. She is such a good big sister. Isha looks so small to me, but when I put her in Hadley's little lap she actually looks really big, but Hadley did a great job holding her! It was so great to see Heather and her little girls. I miss her so much. We have lived so far away from each other for a long time. Heather was in Arkansas for awhile and as soon as she moved back to Idaho I moved to Virginia. Even though there are lots of miles between us we have remained good friends. For that I am forever grateful. Sorry to be so sappy, but I can't help it.
