A visit from Kiki!


My long time friend Kiki came for a short visit this past weekend.  Kiki and I go way back.  We met in college and really got to know each other very well when we spent a semester together studying abroad in Scotland and then being roommates the rest of our college years. She is a very dear friend and we were SOOOOO HAPPY to have her come stay a couple of nights with us while she was here working in Albert Lea.  She lives in Montana and I was lucky enough to catch up with her this past August when I spent a long (much needed) girls weekend in Missoula.   She is one of those special friends that you can just pick up where you left off and enjoy every little second together.  It was a short visit but we were happy to get some quality time in with "Aunt Kiki". To say the kids loved their time with Kiki is an understatement. They are still asking when she is coming back and when we can go to Montana to see her. I hope soon kids, I really do.


Friday night we were able to get a couple of the Scotties together for a wee reunion. It was great to see everyone! Christina and Steve came with their adorable daughters and Dean and Stacey were able to stop by for a very quick visit.  We got to catch up with some drinks and pizza while the kids all got along, which for parents is always nice.

Can't believe it's been over a decade since we were all abroad together living the life in a Scottish palace. No big deal.
Me, Kiki, Dean, Christina & baby Eloise (the best behaved baby in the world I might add).
