Friends

Laura and Mike were at our wedding in 1977.  We have been friends many years! Steve and Mike were friends in High School even. Mike was best man at our wedding.  Thank God he made it from Red’s notification of the time of our wedding TO our wedding - about 5 (?) hours?  🤣  And they had to drive 2 hours to the wedding!

Gosh, I look back at some of the things we did and roll my eyes.  We were crazy - so glad we have settled down some!  We could have used some of this sense then.  

Anyway, we lived 800 miles apart from our family and friends, but we did try to stay in touch with everyone. Steve was offshore working so much that it was difficult though. Since we moved back to Oklahoma, we get to see them more often, we meet for a quick lunch as we pass through the city to go to western Oklahoma and Laura and I chat about quilts and stuff through texting - and Mike and Red chat on the phone quite often.

How many people have friends that they have kept in touch with for life?  We are the lucky ones.  I am still friends with people I went to grade school with and Steve has this sweet couple.

Thank God they all stuck around through our crazy times. Love you, Laura and Mike!
