Joanna and Austin

My best friend, Joanna, and I have been friends as far back as we can remember.  My family moved to Martinsville when I was 2, and we have known each other ever since.  Over twenty years later, and still going stronger than ever!  I must say, I did a fantastic job matchmaking these two, as Austin and I were in YM/YW together when my family moved to Greenwood.  I introduced them one night when we were in high school, and the rest is history! What is so fun about it, is that Joanna and Austin just live 10 minutes from us!  We get together with them often, and always have a good time.  It is so fun when the husbands become good friends, too!  

After surgery, I really needed to get out of the apartment and do something outside.  We decided to go play putt-putt, and then went to Steak and Shake for a late dinner and milkshakes!  I realized later that night that I probably overdid it a bit, but it was a lot of fun, and felt good to be out moving around. 

Back in August, we went to the Indiana State Fair for a fun double date.  We enjoyed some darn good food and people watching.  Kyhle of course had to get a deep friend twinkie.  Yuck!  We love having such good friends live so close to us.  

Joanna's 25th birthday was in September, so we went out to dinner at Cheeseburger in Paradise.  After dinner, they came over and we played some games and chatted for a bit.  Happy Birthday, Jo!  I am so grateful for you and the friendship we have.  I have never known a more loving, loyal, and supportive friend.  I love you, friend!
