Playdate with Christi, Alexis and Anthony (12-27-07)

Over the Christmas break, Christi (an old friend and her kids: Alexis, and Anthony) met with Rachel and I at McDonald's for lunch. We wanted to catch up, since we usually only see each other 1-2 times a year. (We do keep in touch through our blogs, though, and email!) ;)

We had a blast hanging out, the girls always have fun together too! It was so nice to finally meet Anthony (the last time we saw them, Christi had about a month left in her pregnancy).
Here are Rachel and Alexis climbing in the tunnel. (I was so happy that the playplace was big enough to hold me!) ;)
Here are the too cuties! :) (They are only 5 months apart, Alexis will be 3 next month!)
Christi and Anthony! He has gorgeous blue eyes!
The girls hugging the bears.Resting after all their playing!

I am so glad that God has blessed me with a friend like Christi... eventhough, we don't get to talk or see each other on a daily basis, she is a great role model for me. Through reading her blog and keeping posted of her life, she has shown me how a godly woman should be. She is a wonderful wife, terrific mother, amazing daughter/sister, and fabulous friend (yes, I learn all of that through seeing her the few times I do and by reading her blog). I am amazed at how well she handles change and that just makes me want to be a better wife, mother, daughter/sister, and friend. Thanks Christi... I pray that we can get together soon.
