Friendship Reconciled

Two Friday nights ago, I got to spend the evening with my good friend Alyssa. So fun to hang out with Alyssa. Our friendship has gone through such reconciliation. It's been a bumpy road at times with us, but what a learning and growing experience it has been. I am just glad that we made it out on the other side and enjoy spending time with one another. Because our schedules are as crazy as they are, it can be difficult to find time to get to hang out, but this Friday night was perfect. I went over to Alyssa's after stopping at QFC for salad ingredients. We made delicious chicken fettuccine with a homemade sauce and delicious green salad. It was a simply yet very yummy meal made in great company. It was fun to just laugh and share life together. After dinner we headed to the PLU volleyball game where our girls kicked some bootay! I love sporting events and it's always a plus when our team wins. Afterwards we heard there was an all campus event going on in one of the resident halls so we went and checked it out. We got some free candy out of the deal, but mostly just felt old. We remembered back to our "younger" years in college and laughed at ourselves as we watched all the new freshmen run around. On our way back to the car Alyssa got really excited at all the puddles that were formed by the massive rain downpour that night. She very badly wanted me to puddle jump with her, but I just wasn't down with getting all wet, so I played photographer while she enjoyed the splashes. We ended the evening back at her apartment with a movie about firemen and the excitement of the fireman in her life. A great night overall that I hope to repeat. :)

The dinner we made was so delicious!
