We talked on the way home that the whole weekend was very refreshing. We laughed a lot and it was so nice to spend time with people you feel so comfortable around. I know we have all changed over the past 10-13 years since we were teammates, but our personalities and funny quirks that we have gotten to know so well are still present :) I like to think of myself as someone who takes the time to appreciate things in life, but in actuality I often say I run around like a crazy person from one thing to the next. Well we had 30 hours to sit in the comfy truck to catch our breath, relax, dance, sing, and reflect. How could you not be entertained when you have Whit as the DJ doing tae-bo/dance moves through-out the ride?!?
And once we got to State College we were so excited we could barely stop talking..that is except for a few naps here and there. It seems like deeper conversations are an integral part of this group, which has brought us all a lot closer. These girls push me to think about answers to questions I don't think about very often (the good old "If" game). It was so nice to get a glimpse of Amanda's life out in PA. Below is one of Amanda's favorite spots on campus. We are looking pretty studious...

As we get older and life gets hectic it is harder to keep in touch with old friends. After a weekend like we had it is so worth making the effort to get together--old friends are definitely worth holding onto, especially these girls :) And you never know when getting together for dinner may lead to planning a crazy road trip out to PA.
Thank you so much ladies for pushing me to think outside the box and for showing me a weekend of such love and support.
And for the record coriander is my new favorite plant :)
