kindred souls

It's true - April and I are kindred souls. 













Case in point:

We went out to dinner in the South End and spent over 3 hours talking and laughing over burgers, crab cakes and wine. 

You know you have a friend when you can share asparagus and french fries without even questioning how bizarre the combination is!

If you were ever wondering how tall we each are, I think the above photo gets the point across nicely. April = 5'2". Me = 5'9"

We are at the same stage in life - married, no children, 30 years old, home owners. We both travel for a living, lose countless hours packing/unpacking our suitcase's and live for hotel points/airline miles. Our husbands seem to have similar temperaments and a love for all things sports. 

 Boo ya, I have a new friend... in Charlotte!
