Gift Exchange

Katie (The Parrish Family Link) and I got together on Monday to do our gift exchange. Katie and I have known each other for over 15 years. About 2 years ago Katie and her husband moved back here to Southern Illinois and we have been very close since. We have the same job so it's easy to call each other up to vent, complain, or just have a good laugh. It's been such a joy to see her son Jackson grow from birth to now 6 months. When we were younger I always thought of Katie and myself being completely different. It's so strange that now I can say that our lives are almost parallel!

My pink and green gifts to Katie
Katie gave me a year subscription to House Beautiful and a North Face jacket I have been wanting! Jack watched us while we opened the gifts.

I watched Jackson while Katie made another batch of her ridiculously good fudge. Not even close to being on my diet!
