Three Amigas

Punky and I drove down to Iowa City last week to have a mini-reunion with the best friends from high school. Leah grew up 3 houses away from me back in IL, but now lives in Iowa City. Darci was in the States visiting her family who also lives near Iowa City, so I thought we’d better take advantage of this isnce the last time the three of us where together was my wedding……5 years ago this summer!

Here we are in high school……..

    It sucks living away from your old friends.

    Reunions are always too rare!
