Baby Sniefers

Oh man. I found a pile of these today...and they haven't stopped making me smile. 
It's baby Sniefers, people. 

Our very first visit...meeting our life long friends for the very first time. I remember pulling into the driveway, Mom reminding us to be polite and calm in case they were shy....and then we hopped out of the car to see the girls frantically waving at us. They were not shy. In ten minutes we were best friends.

Jen and Liv eating homemade ice cream...with grapes, because they didn't have cherries. Goodness, that seems like yesterday!

Our first movie...The Princess Bride. The six of us(Josh, me, Jen, Lizzy, Kayla, and Liv) played all the parts in the movie. Back in their tiny play house and all over...we kept changing costumes and makeup and voices...we had so much fun.
(Above: me and Kayla)

That time we spent hours outside trying to throw the tennis ball over the house?! :D Goodness, we really do have fun doing absolutely anything!

The great expedition, and their first visit to our house. We brought all those costumes and hats out into the woods and took a whole photo shoot, remember?

Olivia, do you remember showing us that hip dance upstairs in our room?! Oh my, I forgot about that till just now...and then Lizzy tried to do it too! :-)

Back in Ohio

Hours and hours of ERS...that one night we got soo giddy!

When we planned our road trip to Canada...

In Missouri - Kayla, Ash, Liz, Jen, Steph, Me, and Liv
