Jackie, my intelligent, genuine, sweet sweet friend who recently got her Masters in Accounting, came to stay with me for a few days. It was a blast. Back in my BYU days, Jackie and I were hardcore study buddies. We used to spend at least 12 hours of every day together,due to our heavy class load. And that doesn't include when we studied for exams. We were seriously together A LOT. She got me through the Junior Core. We are financial statement buddies. Through it all, we became good friends. While Jackie was here we got to do a bunch of fun things: make delicious raspberry jam, visit the city (Chinatown, Little Italy, Grimaldi's under the brooklyn bridge, eat gelato and "the best Cannoli on the planet", which was not actually the best) and go pumpkin picking. Jackie read me the first half of mockingjay during all the time that was spent in the car, AND we went to the beach on the most windy day I have ever experienced. Crew got knocked over at least twice just from the wind. It was insane. I loved having her here, it was so nice to catch up - and stay up late just chatting. Thanks for being a great friend, Jackie!
While Jackie was here, we got to meet up with Lauren, one of my other sweet college friends. A talented artist, and I'm so happy that through the years we have stayed close even though we live so far. We spent our days together at the University of Washington. Lauren was here working, so we only got to spend the day with her and her mom, but it was great to be reunited with them.
Katie joined us for the day and we all met for Pizza in Brooklyn. Here is the lovely group:
