Friends are tender mercies

 It's been hard with my mom gone - especially since I'm used to talking or hanging out with her almost every day.  I'm so thankful that during the summer a few friends and I would get together on Thursdays to hang out for a little while.  Adult conversation is always nice :)  On one Thursday we took a field trip to Sweet Tooth fairy...yum!
 So thankful for my friend Drea.  Sometimes when I'm feeling down, I ride my bike over to her house.  We basically just sit around and make jokes and laugh.  I love that we have the same sense of humor and that she always looks so happy to see me.  She always calls or texts me when I need it the most.  She is such a tender mercy in my life.
 Nancy at work is another tender mercy.  She is like my other mother.  She made me this cute anklet and some beautiful earrings.  I love that I can talk to her about anything and she will always listen and give me good advice.
I had to include this picture.  Christy slaved for hours over Twister sheets for Colee for her bridal shower.  They were awesome.  I am always amazed that Christy can basically do any thing she sets her mind to and she isn't afraid to try any thing.  I so thankful for her and for her example to me.

I am so lucky to have some pretty great friends :)
