Jen's Baby Shower

Last weekend, Nessa and I threw Jen a baby shower in Manchester. I know most people know how close we three are, but for those of you who don't, these two girls are the greatest! We've been through it all together. I met Jen during my Junior year of high school when we roomed together at a music camp at Tech. We knew instantly that we both wanted to go to Tech and be roomies. Our senior year at the same camp, we met Nessa. She was so sweet and we knew right away that we wanted to be friends with her, as well. So that's how our friendship began. Me and Jen have been to each other's high school graduations! Seems like it was only days ago! Jen and I roomed together for four years during college and even through we went through some tough times, we have come out so much closer and have such wonderful memories. Nessa moved in with us during our Junior year when all three of us decided it was cheaper to rent an apartment. Nessa also interned where I did, so I got to spend a little more time with her after college. Since then, miles have been between all of us...with Jen being in Minneapolis, MN and Nessa in Nashville. But we made the most of the time we had. Since Jen's moved back to Nashville, we have been meeting in Manchester a lot. This works out great because my mom can keep Blake for a few hours while the girls go eat or do pottery. We're hoping to begin our girl's trip again; however, it'll be a little bit closer to home than the beach this year. But that's okay. When all three of us are together, it doesn't matter where we are! We end up talking about the same old things and laughing so loudly that we bother our neighbors. These girls are some of the ones that I can be myself with since they know all of my faults (from living together) and my positives! "Hey, girls! I'll do the dishes!" I think we have all sewn together, made jewlery together, and have all played together in an ensemble. And should I mention that we had almost every class together for the first 2 years and then Nessa and I had almost every class together for the entire 4 years due to us majoring in the same thing. I miss you girls!
