Old Friends

The second weekend in July I headed south to see my friend Marshall. He is one of my closest friends from college - we spent many an hour at Cocost (best Chinese ever!), drawing on napkins, doing crossword puzzles, watching Love Actually, spending Sunday evenings at Panera, and IM-ing endlessly. He's great! His wife Sarah is great (you may remember them from here - we got engaged the morning of their wedding)! And his daughter Norah is fabulous!

I hadn't seen Marshall since our wedding. And had never met Norah. They were in Ames for a wedding so I headed down. In typical Marshall-Dana style, we ran errands, grabbed lunch and spent the remainder of the afternoon talking like old times. There's nothing like great conversation with an old friend that flows like no time has passed. Despite making the 3+ hour drive both ways in one day, it was a wonderful day! The only thing better would have been having Sarah there too!

Here's Norah - what a doll!
