Fun with friends in Fort Worth.

Yesterday Dots and I drove to the neighboring city of Fort Worth to visit my friend Kelly.

Kelly and I became friends when our oldest children were in a play group as babies. Neither of us can believe they're now almost 18! (Note to young mothers: it happens fast!) Kelly and I have stayed close friends even though her family moved to Fort Worth eight years ago.

I asked Kelly to take us to Fuzzy's Tacos where we'd eaten lunch on a girls' outing to Fort Worth last year. I knew Dots would love it there, and she did! Kelly's youngest child, Molly, who is Vivian's age, joined us. Dots really enjoyed visiting with her while Kelly and I caught up.

After lunch Kelly took us to a cute shop called Shoe Gypsy near TCU. Dots was in heaven with all the hip clothes and shoes! After seeking consultation and approval from Molly, we bought a t-shirt for Dots. She'd have come home with much more if I'd have let her.

Sadly, in a show of how far past hip we are, Kelly and I were much more excited about the matching Fourth of July wreaths that we found in another shop.

Aren't old friends the best, though?

"Old" friends are the best and catching up in person is such fun! Looks like you all had a great day!

That's so funny that you can confess to coveting the wreaths! I felt "over the hill" when I was in Forever 21 with my hip sister and nothing, absolutely nothing, appealed to me.
