24 hours with "old" friends

http://

We celebrated Julie's 50th birthday with friends from Davis, Ill -- Jerry and Deb Fortner. The origins of our friendship are our voluntary service days with Freeport Mennonite Church in 1978.

We enjoyed several meals together, visiting, laughing, playing cards (500 and Rook), watching Julie play a practical joke on several ladies (moving their jeans from the womens to the mens restroom), snacking, praying and celebrating the joy of friendships. Six months ago when I asked Julie what she wanted for her 50th it was time with Fortners that was at the top of the list.
