Friends

I don't know what I would have done with out my friends and my ward during this deployment! I have had so much support from so many different people while Jacob has been gone. From meals and groceries being brought over to prayers being said, to invitations to dinner or just to play, to the simplest but most important thing they could offer, friendship. 

Yesterday was my 5 anniversary and while its the third one I've missed with Jacob, it was still nice to have friends who cared. One of my friends invited us over to play for the afternoon and they had made a cake and they ordered pizza. They even sang to me and I got to blow out a candle on the cake. :) It was nice to have an evening out and not have to worry about making dinner or being alone for an evening. I'm so thankful to Heavenly Father for putting such awesome people in my life! I hope that I can be as good of a friend to others as they have been to me!
