Being in Ohio has allowed for me to connect with some friends that I don’t to see often… in some cases… years!

Jess and I met in college… randomly assigned freshman year roommates at Ohio University.  We clicked and still enjoy making adventures together.  We met Lynn (along with a whole group of lifelong friends) living in Bryan Hall.  Lynn has just recently moved back to the states bringing with her a husband!!!  I got to meet Pepe for the first time… and they are a wonderful match.

Fonda, Julie and I were all the minority in the engineering program at Ohio University… as women.  So we quickly bonded… and spent many hours together with student organization stuff and those late night study sessions!  It had been many years since we had seen each other… but we picked up like no time had passed, and chatted the afternoon away at the ‘North Market’ in Columbus.

Jill & I first met in the Guatemala Airport, on a mission trip with EMI.  We have lived together, traveled across oceans to see each other, been pray partners and all around dear friends over ten years now.  It is always an encouragement to just be in the same room as Jill.

Freshman year of college I was randomly assigned 3 other roommates to live in Brown Hall on Ohio University’s South Green.  One of the women, Jessica, and I lived together for three more years and have stayed close ever since.  Well, how fun is it that she just happens to live in Dayton about 15 minutes away from my parents?  Loads of Fun!  Shortly after Daniel left, I headed over to visit.  We picked up like old friends.  Our kids started to get to know each other as new friends.  Julia and Charlie loved playing with Annika.  And Annika loved the constant entertainment… especially the after dinner dance-a-thon!
