I'm taking a page from AM's book and posting about a specific person today. Today is Lana's birthday...meet Lana:
Lana, please don't kill me for posting that pic...it's the only one I can find of you!
Today I am thankful for chance encounters (totally orchestrated by God of course) and new friends that become old friends.
We met Lana and Benj at our preacher's house when both couples were invited over for dinner one night shortly after we'd started attending Mayfair. That night is one of only a couple that stick out in my memory because I was in pain from laughing so hard. If you know Lana, you probably have experienced this. If you don't know Lana, you're missing out. After that we became fast friends with them. Even though we've only known them for less than 4 years, it seems like they've been our friends forever. Sadly, a job took them far, far away about a year ago and we miss them daily. But I am still thankful for the time we got to live near them and hang out with them, I'm thankful for all of the fun times, the serious conversations, the road trips, the secrets shared, the hugs, the laughter, and all the other things that come with having great friends.
Lana from Montana! She was the first person who came up and introduced herself to us and asked us to lunch when we were at Mayfair. And yes I know that laughter from being with her! She needs to blog!!
