Sara and Jen are my oldest friends. Jen and I were in the seventh grade together. We went to different high schools, but somehow Jen ended up in Birmingham at UAB for two years and we lived only a few miles from each other. She has lived in NY since 2004 and is just about done earning her DMD at Columbia. We call Jen "the smartest dumb person" we know. Case in point, at one point while visiting she excitedly informed us that Birmingham is at the foot of the Rockies. Did I mention she lived here for two years? 
Sara and I met in the ninth grade. She lived a few blocks away and we had all kinds of crazy fun in high school, most of which if she wanted to, Sara could use to blackmail me. She married into the Navy and currently lives in Texas in a little town we affectionately call "Brownhole". She is a nurse by day, yoga/artist/superhero by night. It is impossible to fully describe Sara, but suffice to say everyone loves her, many are scared of her (rightly so), and has more random talents than most people have hairs on their heads.
Sara and Jen have known each other for years, mostly as the result of my telling them each stories about the other. They planned to come meet Jackson at the same time. It was hard to tell if they were more excited to see him or each other. We spent a great few days catching up, laughing, cooking fabulous food, and telling stories that made Matt just shake his head.
