To good friends... all over the world!

Growing up we moved all over the world, traveled all over the world,
and met people all over the world.
As a kid- I am sure this was hard. But when I hit about 16/17 years old, I realized it wasn't necessarily good bye when I moved.

I have since traveled more and met more people, catching up with old friends as I go. Isn't it great when you can get together when someone ... who you haven't seen for years... and you can still talk, feel comfortable, and give a big hug to when you leave.


A good friend is moving. Sure I will cry a few more tears- and wish she was around BUT I am grateful I know she will be coming back to Utah at least every summer!

(Also, she will be living very close to two sisters so hopefully
I can get up to visit them one of these days.)


Neti taught me many things-

to name a few:
Argentines eat good food and know how to cook
Gnocchis are hard to make but really good to eat
Empanadas are A-mazing!
It is good to just sit and visit sometimes, stop, enjoy a few minutes
Try new things like a triathlon, half marathon--- and do it with a friend!
My kids need to learn Spanish
You can enjoy life even if your budget isn't huge
and
I still need to go to a SLC Real soccer game!

Thanks Neti- It has been grand.
But this isn't good bye, just I'll see you later alligator!
or according to Neti...
"smell ya later!"

Oh, Amy, I love how the first three things you said she taught you are about FOOD! :) Haha. Yes, you are a good friend to many, and I have always admired how well you stay in touch with your friends far and wide.

I love how when we get together we can talk just like there was never years in between. It's pretty cool. :)
