meet the Holbrooks

My friend from childhood visited with her family this past week - you have to meet her. her name is Annette and our families were good friends while we were growing up. So - she's my oldest friend. Her family moved to LA when I was in the 3rd grade - i still remember how devastated I was. We have kept in contact mostly through Christmas cards for the past few years, but this was really the first time we've been able to re-acquaint ourselves. She now has 4 children 7 months to 7 years. They are all charming - oh! and i can't forget her funny husband Aaron - he is a 5th grade teacher where they live in Hemmet, CA. They came in their RV and parked in front of our house...we played all day and at night when all the kids went to bed we stayed up late and talked about old times and new...here they are

It was great to get to meet her at the hospital. Glad you had a great time. Her little Madeline looks just like her!
