First, let me start off by telling you how we came to know the Spencer's. My husband went to Olive Junior/High School (small school in rural OK), and because friends with Wes around ninth grade. They also joined the same Army Reserve Unit and have been great friends ever since. They even deployed together this last year and had each other's backs. Definitely a bond that runs deep. Naturally I came to know them through my husband.
Jenna and I became friends almost instantly. She's so down to earth, independent, real, no-drama and no-nonsense. My kind of girl. Our boys left for Army training frequently together, so we'd meet up and talk about life, missing them and future plans. In college we'd drive to their house twice a month for dinners and fun nights in the country. We were even at the hospital when their son Jaxon was born. We became especially close when our husband's deployed together. She was definitely my biggest support system, aside from my husband, that I had through that time. So when they said they wanted to come visit us in Florida, we were ecstatic!!
We love visitors and love having time with them and their growing children. We went to the playground, hit the beach, had fun movie nights at home, took family pictures, fished, fed goats, cooked many family meals and even tried chocolate gravy for the first time, shopped, rung in the New Year together, and even snuck away for a girl's night out. Here are some photos from their stay!
