Our Sweet Friends The Samples came to visit us from St Louis this week... We had the best time with them but I can honestly say it was so hard for me to say Goodbye! We have been friends with them since we moved to STL.. Karen and I met in the parking lot of the elementary school when our oldest Phillip and Kyle started Kindergarten, we were there for orientation and Phillip and I were walking out to our car and there was this lady and her precious little boy standing there talking to someone when the 2 boys noticed each other, they said hi and Phillip said Momma he has my shirt on and it was so funny because they were dressed identical..:) they both had there Tommy Hilfiger shirts on and kaki shorts with their little braided belts and their little tennis shoes they were precious.. They were not in class together because Phillip had a.m. kindergarten and Kyle had p.m. but they did have the same teacher who was truly a angel and later on in the year she became a angel. she died of leukemiah.. Bonnie Higgins she was a precious precious soul who was totally created to be a kindergarten teacher, we were very blessed to have her in our lives.. So anyway 1st grade the boys were in class together and I think they were every year except 4th.. They have been really good friends forever but of course they went through a time where they went their seperate ways but they always found their way back:) They also have a daughter Kirsten who is Peyton's age and they were in class together too... Our families have so many memories we were always doing things together, baseball. vacationing, dinner, lunch, celebrating holidays celebrating bdays you name it I think we have done it! They are very sweet friends who have a very special place in our hearts and we feel truly blessed to know them.. Karen is my friend who I can just be me and we can talk about anything and anybody and nothing phases her...She is the friend who makes me laugh until my tummy hurts and it doesn't matter what it is.. It can be something she says or it can be just a look and I know what she is thinking.. Thanks for coming to visit us it really meant alot to us and we so enjoyed every minute!! Please come again soon!! We love you and miss having you in our daily lives! You are all very special to us and we hope we get to see you again soon~~ P.s. karen, I found a family beach photo for your home... Its the one we saw at the restaurant...lol:)
