Summer Kickoff at Bella Vista Library


After swim team practice, today, we went over to Bella Vista Library for their summer kickoff. There, we found a whole bunch of fun Bella Vista friends. Messicks, Grovers, Gulbransens, Gulbransens, Zebleys, Davises, Andersons, Binghams, Hughes, Whites, Seidels, and more. It was a bit of a reunion and reminded me how much I miss seeing all of these faces regularly. We’re in this odd little pocket of Bella Vista that is in different schools and a different church unit than most of these really great great people.  I shouldn’t let those things stop is from being friends, but seeing all of these wonderful people together at once really stirred our hearts to sadness that we don’t have access to regular connections with them any more. I made a conscious decision to reach out and take better care of these long time friendships for my children. They were all so super happy surrounded by friends. 
They had free kona ice, inflatables, face painting, computer games, and enrollment for the  summer reading program. We were only there an hour, but it was great.
