When we got in to town last evening, it dawned on me that my small group leader, Suzanne, from my online Bible study lives in the Denver area. I decided to throw it out there to her that I was in town. I'll be the first to admit that I'm a chicken and was afraid of putting myself out there to be rejected, so I didn't outright ask her if she wanted to meet up. But, thankfully, once she knew I was in town, plans got started to meet up at the mall! Since B and I don't have a vehicle to get around, she was willing to travel the 25-30 minutes in order to meet up. What a blessing it was to meet her and her children!
B and I got there a bit before Suzanne and her kids, so we wandered about a bit. In the middle of the mall, there was a water fountain, which B really enjoyed. She kept wanting to go back to it. Looking for crocodiles was her goal. Ha ha ha! I kept telling her that there weren't any, but she was having fun and kept looking. :)
Once Suzanne and her kids got there the five of us spent a lot of time at the mall eating lunch and just wandering and talking. Her sweet daughter took the lead and we went to some very fun stores, including Build A Bear, American Girl, and the Disney store. B's favorite was the Disney store. She lit up when we walked in and said, "Wow, oh wow!"
Then in the evening Ryan, B and I met up with Christine, one of my closest friends and a roommate when I lived in Colorado. We haven't seen each other in almost 4 years, so it was wonderful to be able to spend some time together. As well, I got to meet her youngest who is 9 months old and she met B for the first time. So much fun to see how our lives have changed and to still be friends! I only wish we had taken a picture. :(
