dinner for friends

several weeks ago

we were blessed to have a quickie visit 

from two awesome ladies!

ashley & i are bloggie friends

that became real life friends.

i love that girl

& feel like each time we're able to chat

which is rare & usually only for a few minutes

it's like no time has even passed.

my girls love her too.

she swings through atlanta every once in a while

& fortunately

we usually are able to hook up.

amelia & i met at ashley's home a couple years ago.

she is super cute & super funny.

she has the best laugh.

i love spending time with her!

we whipped up a quick & simple dinner

& spent the rest of the evening

chatting and laughing and talking about clothes & shoes

& jewelry and decorating

and boys and exercise and other awesome things.

my girls think i'm pretty cool

since i have such cool , fun, hysterical & YOUNG

friends like ashley & amelia.

i told them while i'd give anything to have them as real life neighbors,

i'll be more than happy to visit with them when ever i can get it!

we made pioneer woman's stuffed shells

giada's asparagus and prosciutto

crunchy italian bread

caesar salad & my own personal giada made home made croutons.

i can't remember if we served desert

& if we did, what it was.

but i do remember a special evening

with wonderful friends

and all my family together

(even trevor dropped by to meet the legendary ashley)

sitting around a my kitchen table 

that was painted white & looked awful

& counting my blessings

that i call these two women my friends.

 

 

 I thank my God every time I remember you.
