My China Girls!

OK, so after high school I went to China. It was AMAZING to say the least. I loved every minute I was there, and still think about funny memories on a daily basis.
I got to travel, and teach the cutest kids...and the best part is that I created lasting friendships. There were 6 of us girls that became the best of friends while staying there. There was Me and Kami (we came together), Jen and Mary (they came together), and then Brittany and Larissa (they didn't come together, but I knew Brittany before hand). I should let you know that Me and Kami roomed together, and then Jen and Mary roomed together, and Brittany and Larissa shared a room. It is crazy how close we all became in just the four short months that we stayed in China...but we have email each other for the past 4 years, and have stayed in really close contact. Even though Jen and Mary and Larissa don't live near me, I feel like they are some of my closest friends (along with Kami, and Brittany, but I can just go and visit them whenever I want to). I love getting their emails, and I love any chance I get to see them in person.
I have only had ONE full reunion after China, and that was 3 years ago. We have tried to plan more, but we are all busy, and it is hard.
But Jen came down with her Husband and sweet little girl ALL OF SPRING BREAK! I was so excited to see her. So me and Brittany and Kami kinda had a reunion...but not really. I can't wait to have ALL of us girls back together again. It is so weird that we are all friends, b/c each and everyone of us is SO different.
We had so much fun with Jen. Thanks for coming.
Here are some pictures of us girls, and then us with our husbands. I don't know why, but I think I look unusually fat in the pictures...I think I must have been ovulating???

Ovulating does make you feel fat even if you don't look Fat..you stinker.
