My dear friend Carly drove up from San Antonio to spend a couple days with us. She is one of the sweetest girls I have ever known and I am lucky enough to have her as one of closest friends since the day she was born. Carly grew up in San Antonio and I grew up in Orem but we saw each other at least once a year. Our parents are best friends and we would trade of visiting Texas or having them visit Utah. We have pictures together through every stage of life from infants through adulthood. She even flew up to go to girls camp with me a couple times and was one of my maid of honors. For one Christmas, all I wanted was to visit Carly in Texas and at a party just before Christmas I was surprised with plane tickets. Carly's parents didn't tell her I was coming and she thought she was picking her grandma up from the airport. I still remember her reaction when she saw me walking down the airport hallway and told her that I was there to spend Christmas and a couple weeks with her all by myself. Now Carly and I only live about 4 hours away from each other but between my girls and her nursing school we haven't been able to take advantage of being closer. She recently graduated (CONGRATS CARLY!!) and I am determined to meet up with her more often. My girls must have known that she was a special friend of mine and now Matt's because they warmed up to her immediately. Carly, thanks for coming up. We had so much fun with you and you are more than welcome in our home anytime. We love you so much.

Answers to your questions--
My mom & Sky went down to San Diego for my cousin's mission farewell.
The sleeves on my dress were SUPPOSED to have been fixed but they messed them up even more. They are now starting from scratch and putting on whole new sleeves. It should be nice! I hope... :)
