Friends are Friends Forever

My best friend Tiffany and I met in college and were roomates for 3 years. That's a lot of together time! When I graduated, I moved back to Virginia Beach and Tiffany moved to New Orleans to go to seminary. I got to see her a couple times before we both got married. But in the last two years, we've only seen each other for each other's weddings! Ryan and I got married 14 months ago...so that was the last time we saw each other!

Tiffany called and told me that her seminary asked her to be a representative at some conferences in Virginia for a couple of days. She said that she had some free time on Thursday. So, I jumped in the car on Thursday and drove to Richmond to see her!

I met her and her mom Shelby for dinner at Baker's Crust in Richmond. It was so good to see them and spend time with them! We didn't get to spend a lot of time together, but it was definitely worth the trip! I miss her already!
We were trying to re-enact this pose at Camp Little Crossroads. It's one of my favorite pictures ever...

Here are some Beth and Tiffany classics from over the years...
What was I doing with my hair?!?
Aaaandd...this picture pretty much sums up our friendship for some reason...
Love you Tiff! It was SO good to see you!

Happy (belated) Halloween!

I got a little crafty this month and made some cute fall/Halloween decorations!

The first project are mason jars mod podged with tissue paper. The faces are made out of construction paper and the tops are painted black. They look really cool all lit up!

The second project is a fake pumpkin. I used some spray glue to glue a doily to the top of the pumpkin. Then I painted over the doily with paint before peeling it off. It didn't come out that great...but from far away it looks really cool. I then traced an "A" onto the pumpkin and filled it in!

Can you tell that I have some free time now that Ryan's in school?
