Friends come and go and friendships change throughout the years but I have always been blessed with a really solid group of girlfriends. Sure those friends have changed and some have stayed the same, but I feel extremely lucky to have such amazing women in my life.
There is a lot to be said about "girl time." We all need it, that time with your girlfriends when you can talk about anything and everything. A time for you to vent and cry without being judged or a time to laugh until you feel like you're going to throw up.
Last night, I had some of that girl time.
I can't remember if I've mentioned this or not, but I signed up to the do the Color Run in July with Carolyn & Kelly! Well, I guess it's going to be more of a walk for me. Even though I could run while preggo it's really an inconvenient time for me to try to start training to run a 5k, especially since I hate running.
But that's besides the point.

Back on track.
Look at this ridiculousness! Cannot wait!
Since Carolyn & I hadn't met Kelly before, the three of us decided it was probably wise to meet up ahead of time, versus meeting for the first time when we're about to run and get smacked in the face with paint.
So, last night we did just that!
It was my first blog meet-up and it was SO exciting! I have to admit I was a little nervous, thankfully I had the Beeb with me.
We met up at Crave (one of my fave restaurants) and we had a blast!
Kelly was exactly what I expected her to be; totally laid back, sweet, funny and as cute as can be. The three of us couldn't have gotten along any better. In three hours we covered everything from blogging, babies, in-laws, whole wheat, and so much more.
You'd never have known that we had just met.
She may not do math in public, but I am so excited to have met Kelly and feel really lucky to now call her one of my girlfriends.
I can't wait until next time!
