"It takes a long time to grow an old friend." And I am so fortunate to have some old friends that I treasure dearly...the Hens. I can remember Sue, Heidi and LeAnn being in my life as far back as I can remember people in my life! And probably the coolest thing about our friendship today is that we take a long weekend every year to have our HenFest. Our girls only weekend is a great time to just catch up and spend time together....and we usually find a way to spend a little money shopping too. For more on HenFest years past (and a progression of photos) check out Sue's website.
Probably one of the neatest things about old friends is it doesn't matter how long it's been, you simply pick up wherever you left off. And they basically know everything about you and love you anyway. I remember the first time we did our HenFest; the four of us hadn't really all been together is several years. But from the moment we got together we started talking; and didn't stop until we drove out of Sue's driveway. Each of us was facing a big change in life, whether it was a first baby, a divorce, a new job or a new location....and who better to share your heart, thoughts and fears than old friends. I love these girls and count the days every year until I pack my bag to head for HenFest.
