College Station + SEE-ster + Friends = FUN!

Let’s just say my weekend in College Station didn’t turn out as I expected it.  I ended up having a “SEE-ster weekend” that I thoroughly enjoyed.  I love my sister….(it’s a good thing because in less than a month we will be exploring NYC together!) 

Not only did I get to see Jenny, but I also ran into several good friends while I was in College Station.   I love running into people unexpectedly!  These are the beautiful faces I got to see this weekend…

CHRISTI
Summer 2007 011 
I love this girl!  Infact, pretty soon she gets a post of her own!  She’s my best friend, and she’s getting married in December.  You can imagine my surprise Saturday night when Jenny and I were sitting at Chickfila and I got a text from Christi.  She was studying in Bryan…I didn’t even know she was in town!   Jenny and I were in a little bit of a time crunch to catch a movie, but I had to go see Christi.  We sat and talked at Starbucks for about 20 minutes.  It was short but super sweet time together.  Since we don’t live close to each other anymore, I forget just how much I miss her until we get back together.  I truly love this girl, and she is such a blessing to me! 

EMILY & HANNAH

While waiting in the ticket line to purchase “The Blind Side” tickets, I here someone behind me say, “Is that Katie?”  I turn around, and it is these two beautiful girls along with their friend and Emily’s boyfriend.  We talked for a second and realized we were both going to the same movie/same time.  Wonderful!  We sat together, Hannah and I got to catch up on life before the movie began, and all was well with the world!  :D  We ended up making plans to go to church with them in the morning followed by an incredible lunch at “THE Chinese place”…..that’s not it’s real name (I don’t even remember what it’s called though).   It’s my FAVORITE Chinese food place in College Station…I introduced Hannah to it, and it quickly became a favorite by all.    Two sweet girls who love Jesus with everything in them.  It’s one of my favorite things about both of them. 

LINDSAY

Anyway…Lindsay and I met my junior year/her freshman year at A&M.  I co-led a bible study for freshman, and I was blessed to have her in my group.  She’s beautiful inside and out, and she brings joy to everyone around her.  While I was at Starbucks talking to Christi, Lindsay walked in.  I hadn’t seen Lindsay in probably 3 years.  It brought tears to my eyes to get to see her.  I can’t believe she is now a SENIOR in college!!  It makes me feel EXTREMELY old! 

There’s just a little snapshot of my weekend.  I’m so thankful for friends and for the “unexpected sightings” that always happen in College Station.  Thank you Jesus for friends and for see-sters!  They are all blessings to me.
