Dear Bailey,
I miss you so much! I can’t believe I haven’t seen you since last summer. At least we had a great time and made many memories. I love to think about that visit.
Again, thanks a lot for inviting me. Also, thanks for inviting Kelsey. The way you surprised me was hilarious! She made everything more fun. Plus, I never would’ve gotten a chance to see her otherwise.
Remember the time we stuffed our bathing suits with rocks? That was awesome! We looked so fat- I can’t believe your mom took pictures. It was scary when the rocks weighed us down, though, and they all spilled out sooner or later. Didn’t it just take forever to clean them up? How many were there? Four hundred?
That “court case” was so silly. I still have the drawings and quotes about “evidence”. Remember that? You were Arthur, I think. Maybe. You guys were actually MAD until we had the court case. Then it was just funny. (It really was all along.)
Even if we hadn’t done so much silly and memorable stuff, I would’ve loved it. Your house is-as always- fabulous, and your family seems just like it’s mine. Strangely enough, I feel almost like they’re MY family. We had the greatest food. Those juicy pear jelly -beans were fabulous.
I hope we can see each other over Spring Break. I don’t think you-know-who is taking me. (Cross your fingers!) Even if we can’t, call me, email me, even use our “special” stationary to write. Sorry this letter is so short!
Your Best Friend Forever,
Alexandra
