Day 4 - Seeing Many Friends

We spent our Friday visiting with many friends. It began with lunch at Ruby's Diner on the Balboa Pier. We met with my college roommate, Marcia, and her family. Marcia is battling breast cancer (and she is doing well!) and I really wanted to see her. She is done with chemo and nearing the end of radiation. I am thankful she is doing so well!

After lunch, we went to see our former neighbors... we visited with Amanda, Abby, Lily and Sophie... John was at work, so we didn't get to see him.

This photo is more amazing than you may realize... Anna is IN the water. She went in willingly and all by herself. She even smiled!

Amanda and I were pregnant at the same time with Emma Kathryn and Lily Catherine. They were born 15 days apart. We used to walk daily (because you can in CA!) while pushing our babies in the strollers. These two girls don't remember living next door to each other, but they acted like they have been neighbors for years!

Here are all the girls... Lily, Emma, Sophie, Anna, Abby. Fun times!

After our visit, we went to Boy and Cece's (Roy and Cecelia's) for dinner. I didn't get photos of them though... silly me! It was fun to see them again.
