Sliding doors

Happy friday, peeps!! I'm not looking after any kiddo's today(woot woot!! first day all month!!), so the boys & I are packin up & heading  for a playdate!!We are all pumped up.... Z & Wy haven't seen there bestie, Ki, in like 2 months. And Ki's mom is one of my besties!! I can hardly contain my excitement at the thought of drinking coffee & getting caught up with her. Delight.

I don't have a ton of girlfriends that I can really, really talk to. I actually only have 3(up until a couple of years ago, I only had 1!!). Secretly, I always craved a big group of girlfriends...but, I could not be more grateful for the 3 that I do have. Back home, a group of girlfriends that I use to hang around with, when I lived there, are all very close still. They get together once a month & just drink, talk, laugh, cry. I have these intense sliding door moments(please tell me u have all seen this movie), where I wonder if I still lived there, if I didn't get on the train(okay, if u have never seen the movie, that will make no sense. sorry), how different my life would be. It's crazy, really. How, looking back, I see that I really was at a crossroads & how I jumped on one path & this amazing life that I have, is the outcome. Of course I have my moments, when I think of just how different my life could have been if I never did get on the train(movie, again). Not that I think it would be any better or any worse then my life is now, but just different. Crazy. Honestly, if I could go back I would do it again. I would get on the train(lol), absooooolutely!!

 Friday also means it's.....


 Over at FLOB. Seriously, it's one of my favorite hops! I mean it is dedicated to leaving bloggy love, who couldn't love that?!

Also, Shalyn over at Laugh until your Cheeks Hurt did this super, super cute vlog. I'm thinking of doing it to, but I kinda like being able to hide behind my blog. But, this year is dedicated to pushing my comfort zones, so u never know.

Okay friends, have a happy, happy friday & take a lil time to enjoy the view(lol!lol! Remember when Barbara Walters always use to say that? Lame.)xoxo

HA! I feel the same way about "hiding" behind my blog, but it was fun! Thanks so much for the shoutout- you should really do the vlog!

PLEASE DO THE VLOG! : )

I totally agree with you about the girlfriend thing! I have 4 best friends from college, but we all are spread out now and don't get to see each other enough. I have 1 great friend in town...that's it!! I have never seen that movie, but crazily enough this post made sense to me! Haha!!

I am with ya on the close girl friends thing :) I've always just had a few girls that I knew I could count on that I felt I could share just about everything with. There's nothing like those friendships to support ya!

And you should definitely do a vlog! Shay is one of my best friends and it was so fun seeing hers! :)

PS - Thank you so, so much for the heart-felt comments and prayers for my sister-in-law and her family. It means the world...
