This March my sister Maria and I took three weeks to visit our friends the Krafts in MO and the Johnsons in MN. We met the Krafts through Blogger a few years ago and became friends…and eventually ended up visiting them in April of 2013. Well, we all decided we needed to have another visit; and so they had us out there for a week which was great! We had a wonderful time with them.

After the week at the Krafts (which was filled with coffee, talking, movies, and going to the nation’s biggest furniture store. That last one is more fun than you might initially think. ;) ), we got to spend two wonderful weeks with the Johnsons. There’s nothing like having friends that are like family, where going to their house feels like going home. Each new time with them is better than the last. We spent our two weeks hanging out, having long conversations until well into the morning, watching our favorite movies and tv shows, and trying to convince those Johnsons to drink black coffee. (They are definitely still a work in progress) My time with them was precious, and even though we just left I miss them so much already.
