'my pacey'

i don't usually give my friends nic names but kacey is one such friend who dons the made up name 'pacey'. i got to know her really well when we worked together with our church's college ministry in tallahassee. we were on staff together and i've never worked with someone that i enjoyed as much. kacey got to know me as bryan's wife and so bryan is friends with her too. she was one of the first friends i told when i was pregnant with mya. she came over when mya was two days old and many times thereafter, to hold, love on, and feed mya. she quickly became a pseudo-aunt kacey.

a year ago, kacey married one lucky man, justin. they got married a week before bryan and i moved to saint louis. bryan and i were able to read scripture during the ceremony, which was in charleston. we'd never been to charleston and now i know why it is so famous. it is gorgeous and quaint. bryan and i loved dining downtown with our friends and watching the boats come and go from the harbor at their wedding reception. fabulous!

k & j were our first 'tallahassee' friends to visit us here in the lou. it was awesome and i realized after she left how much i needed to see an old friend. granted, it was a short visit but such a refreshing one. we miss our friend and we love getting to know justin. mya in particular loved getting to know justin.

i love you, pace. i'm so grateful for your friendship. thank you for your visit.

mya is looking at justin in this pic. he was so patient and funny with her and i think that's why she liked him so much.
