A few Saturdays ago, we got the chance visit with some very good friends of ours. Jesse is one of Brian's close friends from college; his wife Jenny also went to school with them. They're both Air Force pilots currently stationed on the East Coast. Jenny's family lives here in Tucson, so when they called to let us know they would be in town, we naturally had them over for lunch (perhaps a ploy to have a chance to visit with them since Ellie naps in afternoon). The last time they were in town was literally two days after Ellie was born and they visited us in the hospital -- but since Ellie was in the NICU, this was the first time they met her.
After getting in some squeezes with Jenny, Ellie took to Jess pretty quick. She might have shown him every single one of her toys.
Shortly after, Ellie went down for a nap and we all sat out on the back patio for lunch and margaritas. We ate, laughed, reminisced about old times and talked about future plans. It was one of the best afternoons we've had in a long time.
The obligatory "guys" photo.
Ellie woke up right before Jess and Jenny left, so we snapped a few more pictures.
The girls.
It was wonderful catching up with such good friends-- friends we see all too rarely. However, since they're moving to HAWAII this fall, I have a feeling we'll be seeing each other again very soon. :)
