let me just pause here with the pictures for a minute and tell just how much these friends pictured above mean to us!!!! they were honestly our lifesavers out here in cleveland!!! we have had SO many adventures and great memories with these guys the last three years! we are so lucky to have had them in our adventure out here in cleveland, and will miss them TONS. we are all headed from law school in different directions but with roots here in Utah, i think we have a pretty good chance of seeing them around the holidays. they were ej & my first visitors {besides andrea and linney who were there for the birth} at the hospital. they were so great to help with ej whenever we needed it! i thank my lucky stars they were here for us!

below: our 'family dinner' group. this group of friends were in the same study group as 1Ls. then we started having family dinners about once a month. we LOVED getting to know all of them better and looked forward to our dinners with them! they are we such great people and we will miss them TONS!
