I'm headed to Chicago today for a three day conference. This is my first business trip for the new company and I'm super excited! I'm really looking forward to learning more about this industry.
While I'm there, I'm meeting up with lifelong family friends. The Mom and Dad were TTC at the same time as my parents and the two couples bonded over treatment, etc. Their oldest son in about 8 months older than I am. There are pics of us playing together as babies! Now we're all grown up and having kids of our own. I can't wait to see everyone and meet the babies!!
It's funny how life turns out, isn't it? Growing up, I always thought I would marry this boy. Now, here I am - married for the second time with a seven year old girl and meeting his wife and 18 month old daughter. And you know what? Couldn't be happier. God's plans are always better than ours.

Out of curiosity, are any of you in Chicago? If so, wanna meet up for drinks downtown tonight? Leave me a comment and let's see if we can get together!

What songs from 10+ years ago do you still listen to?
Praying you have a great trip!
ReplyDeleteNow I have that Dixie Chicks song in my head!! :) Love it!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun trip!! And it would be so cool if you got to meet up with any bloggers!!
ReplyDeleteLove today's playlist!!
ReplyDeleteHave a fun trip!
ReplyDeleteHave fun and be safe!!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your trip!
ReplyDelete(And thank you for making me dig out my old Dixie Chicks CDs.)
I can't even remember which songs came out 10 years ago! Blueprints for the Black Market by Anberlin came out in 2003, but I didn't start listening to them till '06. I was more interested in Veggie Tales than popular music back then. I still sing Barbara Manatee and His Cheeseburger quite often even if it annoys my husband. =D
ReplyDelete10 years ago seems like a long time, then I did the math and realized it isn't as long as I thought!
ReplyDeleteI think 10 years ago I was listening to a lot of Seether, Limp Bizkit, and Backstreet Boys. And whatever was popular to play at parties and frat parties :)
I hope Chichago is awesome!

Glad you are enjoying yourself! I've been listening to so many oldies lately too. Just downloaded George Michael's "Twenty Five" and it's so good. I wish he'd make another album! Of course, that is much older than 10 years ago, but it's still good I tell ya!
ReplyDeleteLife always throws curveballs - have a great trip!
ReplyDeleteHa! I have a couple of songs I still listen to from the 80's! Pet Shop boys so rule.
ReplyDeleteThat is really cool that your parents were friends and you are still friends from childhood. I love stories like that.
