Hanging with "New" Friends

We were able to meet some very special people in Branson on Tuesday afternoon! I can't remember how far back I made up this idea, but I can't believe it finally happened. Devin and I met through our blogs, again I can't remember how far back, but it has been at least 3 years or more! Over the years, we have read about each other's lives, then started emailing, exchanging cards, texting, calling, and now facebooking! We have tons in common especially our kids! So it just clicked!

We truly feel like the best of friends...only one catch, we have never SEEN each other face to face!!! The hubbies didn't want to meet up in just a random tourist place, so Cory had the BRILLIANT idea to have them come to our condo, swim a little, and cook dinner. You know sort of like we would do with friends in our home (you know minus the pool!)

It worked out perfectly! The kids were fast friends, the hubbies got along, and of course Devin and I were great!!! We swam for a bit, let the kids watch a movie and relax, chatted, cooked dinner, cleaned up, and just had a good ol' time!

We didn't get a pic of us before we hit the pool, so again you will have to wait. But here are some cute ones of the kids...
