Haley!

Haley came to visit us from Atlanta a few weekends ago!  We didn't do anything particularly adventuresome or Texan, just had a good couple days of face-to-face hangout time.  We went out to eat on the river, cooked at the apartment, did a little shopping and and went on a nice, long & chatty neighborhood walk.  

It was particularly nice to visit with someone whom I have good "roots" with.  I've realized the past few months that even though we've been connected to Waco for nearly 5 years, we don't have many roots here.  (The people we did plant roots with have now ventured to their next destinations.)  It's fun to move around and have friends that do the same, but it can also be a little emotionally hard.  Especially when your roots are growing new roots in places you know you won't be a part of in the same way again.  Thank you for making your second trip out here, Haley.  We love you & appreciate your friendship!

Sounds like you guys had a great time. I would have never reconized Haley in a million years. Was she in your wedding? It was very nice of her to make the trip to Waco!!!
