You know what's wild? When childhood friends start having babies. On purpose. Definitely a sign you're getting older.
And this past weekend, Josh and I made our way on back to my hometown to shower the latest mom-to-be-on-purpose with all the baby things. (By that, I mean diapers, a book, and gift cards.)
But things this weekend weren't all hors d'oeuvres and boobs and butts. Pennsylvania's one of those trips I only have the mental capacity for, like, once a year at this point. Therefore, we def had to capitalize on our presence.
So in addition to "baby things," Josh and I also made sure to find time to catch up with another childhood friend of mine at Tröegs Independent Brewing over drinks and snacks.
In classic fashion, what was meant to be a quick single-drink reunion ended up turning into a three-hour outing. Who's surprised?
And we squeezed in family time, too. Before leaving, I made sure to absolutely dominate game night by destroying my mom and Josh in Monopoly. As you can see, my mom wasn't pleased with the outcome.
It was a quick trip – but a fun one! So thanks, childhood bestie, for having a baby on purpose. It was a great excuse to spend some time together in our ole' stomping grounds before you popped out a mini-me. ✌🏼
I can't believe you're about to be a mom (lol). Remember that time you [REDACTED] when we were sixteen?! How times change!
