Last weekend we went to visit Milton after 2 months of being away. To say that the reunion was exciting would be an understatement. It was fantastic.
We arrived Friday night and stayed with our pastor’s family, so I was able to hang out with my amazing friend, Sarah, that night and all the next morning. At 1pm on Saturday I went to Lizzy’s and hung out with her and Anna for about an hour before heading out with them to their brother and my very good friend, Josh’s, football game. It was really good to see the Carnleys again and I enjoyed watching Josh and Jake play football, thought they did lose. ;)
After that, I was finally able to talk to Mrs. Carnley and Josh on our ride over to the Curdy’s house where we planned to play volleyball and hang out before we watched the Gator vs. Bama game. We decided the teams, with Katy, Lizzy, and John on one team and Josh, Danny, and me on the other. It was a blast! I never realized how much I missed playing volleyball with my friends!!! I had so much fun! We played, laughed, and made fun of eachother as we passed the ball back and forth over the net. After an hour and a half or so, Lizzy and Josh had to leave to go watch the game with another friend, so after a few quick pictures and hugs, we said our farewells and they left. The rest of us, now John, Danny, Katy, Jessica, and me, returned to the house and enjoyed cookies and Brownies as we watched the Gator game and played cards.  As the clock struck 9, my dad showed up and talked to Mr. Curdy while I gathered my bag and box of books that Katy and I had traded and said farewell. It was so had to say goodbye again but I immensely enjoyed the times I had with my friends. I got in the car and waved my final farewell as we began to back out of the driveway. After getting settled, I turned to Sarah who sat in the seat next to me and smiled as we began to converse once again. When we stopped at Winn-Dixie we made jokes and laughed as we walked through the store with our dads right ahead of us. By the time we got home it was past 10 so we talked with the adults for a few minutes then retired to bed, both us us exhausted from the days activities, as Sarah was also busy doing something for her school that afternoon. The next day we went to church and hung out for a while after the fellowship meal to talk to our friends. Afterwards we packed up and said goodbye to our pastor’s family and pulled out.
*content sigh* oh my…I had so much fun!!! I can not wait to visit again at the end of the month. The only way it could have possibly been better is if 1) if we had stayed indefinitely and 2) if my wonderful friends, the Whites, were there. But all in all, it was a wonderful trip and it felt good to be home.
