10th Ward Girls

I loved growing up in the 10th ward. I had so much fun with this group of girls. So many wonderful memories I have with them most of which start in kinddergarten. Once we were in high school we kind of all went our separate ways. When we would see each other at church or at young woman activities we were always such good friend. Girls camp was the funnest. We made this quilt in jr. high, we called it the friendship quilt. Each of us contributed scrap fabric our moms let us have. That mad it fun that it had a piece of each of us. We stayed up all night one night piecing the top. We did a terrible job, and it might be the most not cute quilt ever made but we loved it. We would pass it around to each other once a week and we would bring it with us to camp. A few years after high school we decided to cut the quilt in to portions so that we could each have a piece of the Friend quilt. We have always been really good at getting together once a year. We usually do it around Christmas now because the ones who live out of state are home visiting family. Even though some of us only see each other once a year you would never know. The conversation is wonderful and the feelings of true friendship are still there. In the photo is, Me, Brittney Smith Jewitt, Nickii Harker sholz, Alyson Willey, Amanda Hill Welsh, and Taunya Martin Whipple. Now we live in a neighborhood with a lot of little girls Jane's age. Sometimes I feel like I am reliving my childhood when I watch them make there plans, play there games, chitchat the way girls do, or have a disagreement the way girls do. I think that she is building some lasting relationships.
