The Importance of Friends

I guess we never have realized the importance of having friends until now. We have always had great friends, most of them live in or around Indy, but we love when we get the chance to visit with them. We have lived without friends here in Evansville for about 8 years. We could never find couples who were our age with as many kids or the same age kids as ours until now. Our neighbors are such a blessing to us. They have 3 kids, 2 girls ages 4 and 10 months, and one boy age 7. How perfect is that? Tyler and Trenner play with their son. Ansley plays with their daughter and crushes on their son, which is going to be the first of many crushes she develops for one of her brothers friends. Then when Brynlie is older she can play with their baby. Their mother is my age and she is a stay at home mom too!! Their Dad is a high school youth minister, he and Jeff get a long great. Now when we first met them we were worried that they would not approve of us drinking an occasional beer and margarita but much to our surprise and enjoyment we shared our first margaritas and beer last night:) It was one of those things that you don't plan but enjoy soo much. We were all just talking and the subject of bucket margarita came up and they invited us over for a taste. We had so much fun just sitting out on their deck on a cool summer evening sharing margaritas and funny stories. We didn't realize that we had been sitting their for 2 hours enjoying each other's company. It was nice to have friends to do that with.
