I spent the evening with some of my best friends in seminary. These are truly wonderful ladies whom I love and respect. My friend, Maggie, is the epitome of hospitality...always. She cooked dinner for us and tucked us all in for a movie. She even put me up for the night (as a Tennessean, I don't like to drive in the snow), complete with my own toothbrush marked with my name, breakfast, and a packed lunch. I have really been missing her this semester as we went from having almost all of our classes together to only one. She always knows neat facts and statistics about things.

Kristy is one of those people I can always turn to for deep spiritual conversation. I love seeing how God is working through her to offer mercy and healing to others. She always has a big smile on her face and has one of the best laughs.

Emiko has such a unique spirit. She is a musician and shows her own style in all she does. She also tells it like it is and is extremely funny. I found her looking out the window and laughing. When I asked what she was doing, she just pointed and kept laughing. I looked outside and saw that someone had made faces on the snow-covered car windshields in the parking lot below. Hilarious! It's one of the best snow pranks I've seen. We discovered who the artists were and they did all the cars their building's lot. So cute!

Though we were briefly interrupted from our girly fun, we had a great evening of laughing, catching up, great food, and movies. It was just what we all needed. I am so thankful for these ladies!
