I'm back! (in Dallas, as well as bloglandia).
The Seattle trip was wonderful. Lots of friends and family, which was exactly what I hoped for and was excited for.
Some highlights: Baby and I got overwhelmingly spoiled,
I escaped the 19 degree ice day in Dallas,
and I got to have a tea party with Janae and McKenzie.
Can't get any better than that!
Some pictures from the trip...
One more view out my window, last day of the conference.
It snowed! Not much, and it didn't last long, but it was pretty and I loved the fog!
Hanging out with Janae and baby girls!
A night out with C-Group girls (getting chocolate, of course.
I "borrowed" this picture from Ann...thanks?)
Sisters! A family friend and Kira threw a baby shower, and Alisha and mom flew up for it.
Lots of really cute baby girl things...
C-Group girls at the shower...Sorry for covering your face Alicia!

Now...to the fun things!
Abby pointed out that about 5 or 6 of us at the shower have all known
each other somewhere around 25 years...
Proof: Angiolina, Calia, Abby, Andrea (she just visited one day), & Carrie at the pool!
Calia, Abby, Angiolina, & Carrie now!
Calia & Emily
We go way back...just for fun, here's the picture of our C-group when we graduated high school.
I'll have to look for more...
I'm sure I have some from college days, and some
horrible ones from junior high and elementary school days.
Abby and I! (Ann gets the photo credit...my copy didn't turn out so well).
I am about 2 months older than Abby.
My baby is due in May, hers is due about 2 months after mine.
I think our babies are destined to be best friends for always and forever.
