Old Friends

You know, itโ€™s not often that I get together with a group of people anymore. There are a few reasons, but mainly because we live in California, and all of our friends and family live in other states. That, and making new friends is hard as an adult!

Recently, that changed when two of my childhood friends (and their wives) visited us for a week.

Iโ€™ve known Avis and Mike since elementary school. We played soccer together growing up, and even though we didnโ€™t go to the same college, we always hung out when back to our hometown during breaks.

As life went on, we always kept in contact. Iโ€™d see them when possible, but all three of us live in different states now between California, Michigan, and Maryland.

So, this made the trip all that more memorable. As it always is, we laughed a lot. Itโ€™s easy with them. They are, in many ways, like family at this point. I love to hear about what they are up to in life, and itโ€™s great to see them successful.

People come and go in your life, but there are always a few that are constant. For me, thatโ€™s Avis and Mike.
