So, imagine my surprise when I walked into {what I thought was a normal} girls' night, only to see this:
We had a great time {as always,} eating, chatting, and laughing. Amazing how there are always great stories to be shared and good conversation to be enjoyed!
The girls' got me some really special gifts! They knew that from here on out, Ian and I are limited to our 2 suitcases + a carry on each, so they tried to keep the gifts small and portable.
Katie and Jessica got me this adorable heart shaped bowl with two chick flicks and lots of candy and popcorn!
Courtney had this amazing calender made with pictures of us all throughout the years! It folds flat for travel but folds out to stand up on a desk or table top!
So cute!
Jessica also made me these great scripture cards {because I want to start memorizing more,} and put them in a tiny photo album! She's so creative!
Jaci got me a travel set (with a luggage tag, which I desperately needed more of!) and a middle easterny scarf. Love it!
Not pictured is a mirror that Katie got for me last weekend that I could put in our shipping crate, so its already on its way to the port!
Thank You, God, for such amazingly wonderful friends.

I've used the flash just over the last couple of days. It's really hard to get night shots in my house -- it's so dim! The flash is my dad's 30 year old flash for his film SLR but it works okay if you give it enough time to recharge.
Your lucky and you deserve it:)
SO sweet of your friends! I love it!
