Reunited in Vegas
Thursday, February 25, 2010 
Facebook is a fabulous tool for those who travel full time...it allowed us to connect with two of my friends that I haven't seen for ages!
Staci is an old military friend...I haven't seen her since we said goodbye at Ft. Meade in Maryland back in 1998. When she saw that we were going to be in Vegas, she contacted me and I'm so glad she did! We spent lots of time together while we were in town...mostly hanging out at parks and enjoying each other's company. Her daughter is the same age as Bella, so that was wonderful!
Martha is a friend from my days in Waverly, IA...she moved to Las Vegas straight out of high school and I haven't seen her since! We were practically inseparable back in the day. I still remember her doing my hair for prom, and no one could make me laugh like she did!
We had such a fun time...we ordered Thai take out, let the kids run wild (her kids are also Bella's age), and reminisced about days gone by. We're already planning on seeing each other again this summer. Yay!

I didn't realize that you grew up around Waverly, Iowa! I'm right near there. I've been reading your blog for a few weeks and love your lifestyle. I'm a little "crunchy" too! :)
You grew up in Waverly? I spent one year at Wartburg. I'm from the Milwaukee area and started some dreads about 6 weeks ago thanks to some inspiration from you and your 3 year dreadiversary. Funny that you're from Waverly!
Elizabeth and Jen...we lived in Waverly for about 2.5 years (from 8th grade to 10th grade). I still go back occasionally to visit friends...
