This past weekend we had our first house guests! Chris and I have known each other since elementary school at St. Mark's and rekindled our friendship in 9th grade at Vines. We were both in freshman spanish class with Ms. Mejia!
Chris and I have been through a lot of highs and lows in life in our many years of friendship and even though we haven't lived in same state for 8 years we've always remained great friends! I even spent two spring breaks at Duke with her to celebrate our birthdays! For some reason coming to Norman for Spring Break wasn't nearly as exciting!
Most importantly she has always been a wonderful friend to me! We've never argued about anything and usually have the most fun just hanging out and doing nothing. I will spare you all really funny inside jokes and stories, but one of my favorites is our "100 things to do before college list"!!
SO getting back to the point of the blog. She and her friend from college, PJ, came to Orlando for a little sunny getaway! They both live and work in the heart of NYC and work way too hard at "a big bank" and a commercial real estate company that happens to own buildings like 30 Rock and the Chrysler Building. (and I am so proud of them!!) Needless to say they work really long hours, days, and weeks and needed a break! We went to dinner Thursday night to celebrate Chris's Birthday! Then we all came back to our place for some homemade birthday cake! On Friday, they spent the day with friends at the Disney Parks! Saturday we were really touristy and went to not one, but both of the outlet malls! ;-) Then found a Buffalo Wild Wings so we could watch all the basketball games! That's where we spent our Saturday night!! And it was great! Luckily both of our teams won and we were all in a great mood! Now I'm hoping OU plays Duke in the tournament! (even though I have Duke winning it all). Entering into my first bracket challenge this year is another post all together! But has definitely made me very interested in all the games. (I think that was Kyle's secret plan all along!)
We LOVED having friends come stay with us and can not wait for our next guests, the Hustons, who are coming on April 29th!!!!
