The Little Girl From Across the Street PART 2!!!!

Andrea and I missed each other so much that we decided to hang out AGAIN this week. She drove back to our house on Monday morning. The plan for this past week was to have a SATC (Sex and the City) marathon. We were positive that we were going to get through all six seasons and the first movie.

Note: Andrea and I truly disliked SATC II. In our knowledge that movie doesn't exist!

Sadly, we were unable to get through the marathon because we were disturbed by taking naps, ridiculous laughter, going to the beach, going to the wine bar, cooking and playing a lot of dance central! We did make it through half of season 4.

I came to the conclusion that Andrea and I could honestly become beach bums. Growing up we didn't have the luxury of going to the beach whenever we wanted. We were fortunate enough to have homes with pools! We spent a lot of time in the sun and swimming. Now that we are almost fully grown up:) we go to the beach. We had so much fun! We didn't realize how loud we were laughing until all the people around us kept looking at us. We didn't care. We were having a freaken BLAST!



I took Andrea to Chelsea's Wine Bar. It was her first experience at a wine bar but definitely not her last one. We met up with some of mine and Robert's friends and drank a few bottles of wine hehe. Of course, we laughed really hard! I don't think I have laughed that hard and for a consecutive period of time since I was a kiddo! This picture really sums up me and Andrea!



I also took Andrea to Rocket Park. She was absolutely amazed how big the rocket is and how tiny Apollo really is. There is a lot of history at the Rocket Park. Andrea thoroughly enjoyed visiting it too:).



I can't describe in words how much fun Andrea and I truly have. I can say that Robert has expressed to me that he has never seen two friends bond so closely. Now that he's had the opportunity to get to know Andrea he can see why we are so close. He is amazed by the friendship Andrea and I have.

I will close this post saying I thank God everyday that Andrea is in driving distance and we have the oppotunity to hang out a lot more. Finally, I will continue to pray that one day Andrea lives across the street from me again.

The Little Girl From Across the Street!

One of my child hood best friends, Andrea, visited me in Houston this week! She just recently moved to San Marcos, TX. I have known Andrea for 21 years!! When we were small kiddos growing up my pops started referring to her as the "little girl from across the street." That title stuck to her for 21 years!

It was such a wonderful visit. We Netflixed, I cooked her some wonderful meals, we went to the beach, we ate great seafood and we had countless laughs! At one point, Andrea laughed so hard she choked on her water! I had to conduct the heimlich maneuver on her! It was scary but it goes to show how much we laughed.

Here are some pictures of me and Andrea at the beach in Galveston, TX.







Here are some pictures of me and Andrea at the Boardwalk in Kemah, TX. We had some dang good seafood that night!





I am so happy that were are closer to each other now. My goal is to persuade her to move to Houston, TX. I just pray one day we can actually live in the same city again. What the heck, I will even pray for her to live across the street from me again:).
