Jordan and Kim came back to Florida for a visit last week! Well, Jordan was here for work and they turned it into a family vacation, which made us SO excited!! Chris and I were in a small group with Jordan and Kim last year and they quickly became some of our best friends. Not only were we in small group together, but Kim and I were also pregnant with just one month separating our due dates. Adalynn was born on September 23 and Avery was born on October 25th. It was so much fun going through our pregnancies together and having someone else to talk to through those 9 months.... and the months to follow.... :) Sadly, the army stationed Jordan in Washington just one month before Kim's due date and we had to say good-bye to our friends.

(This picture was taken at my shower just one month before miss Adalynn was born and two months before Avery was born.)
The four of us have kept in touch and this past week we were finally able to get our baby girls together for the first time! Of course, we took about 1000 pictures of our sweet little girls. They love each other and are definitely BFF's!! :)

Wednesday morning Avery and I went to the hotel where Jordan and Kim were staying. We were hoping to hang out at the beach, but it was cold and windy so we settled for the indoor pool. This was Adalynn's first time in a pool and she did great! Both girls were kicking and splashing and having a grand ole time! I'll have to steal Kim's picture of the girls "swimming" since I didn't get one with my camera.
On Thursday we had Jordan, Kim and Adalynn over for dinner just like the good ole days. It was so much fun watching the girls play together!
....after Avery was born Jordan sent her this onesie- we are so glad he got to see her wear it!...

Jordan and Kim, we are always talking about how sad we are that you don't live here anymore. We miss you both and are so thankful to have you in our lives. We loved getting to meet little miss Adalynn last week - she is absolutely adorable!! It was so much fun seeing our little girls play together.... next time they will be crawling/running all over the place and we'll spend most of our time chasing them around! haha! We are planning our trip out West to see you all hopefully sometime sooner rather than later. We love you both and had a blast last week! Thanks for being such wonderful friends- we are so thankful for you!
