Meet Tara


Tara and I are Highland Hawks, That's our high school.

Tara and her husband James just moved here from Cleveland, Ohio. I have experienced a new level of happiness since they've arrived. For so many reasons:

-We went to High school together so we have so many fun memories together. We shared a stand in orchestra and were total dorks.
-Her husband in just beginning podiatry residency at the same program as Doug.
-They have four children. Three of which are the same age as my kids, they all get along so great. I love her kids.
-We have never lived close to someone who is going through the same thing as our family (like last night our hubbies had a meeting so we met for dinner instead of being frustrated that we were home alone).
-We can talk forever and both jump all over the place in our conversations.
-She makes me laugh.
-They live just a mile from me.
-Did I mention we could talk all day long?

Tara and I 
I love Tara and can't believe I'm so lucky to have such a great friend from my past live in Vineland, NJ with me. We're constantly saying how crazy it is...who would've thought that 11 years after graduation we'd be in New Jersey and neighbors!


*I have to say that I have many great friends here who could never be replaced, I love and appreciate each and every one of them. Just wanted to give a shout out to a "blast" from the past.
