Rebekah & Shane

The last time I saw Rebekah, it was 1998. It feels way weird to say that we haven't seen each other in 12 years because it doesn't feel anywhere near that long. We met through our home-school high school. Rebekah was (and still is) a petite bundle of energy and laughs. She was always very welcoming and out going. I was shy but eventually came out of my shell during my senior year (no one believes me when I tell them I was shy - I used to hide under my bed when company came over). She was one of my high school friends that unknowingly helped me through that process.

Rebekah, myself, and a whole host of other girls forged friendships that year. We were all part of our school's production of "The Sound of Music". Rebekah was one of the postulates and I was Mother Abbess (yup, I sang "Climb Every Mountain" and hit the note...I can't watch that part of the movie with Julie Andrews to this day!). Thanks to the wonder that is Facebook, we've been able to get in touch again and it's like time hasn't really passed. She's been married to a great guy, Shane, for three years and they're expecting Baby in September. I had a blast catching up with Rebekah, meeting Shane, and capturing Rebekah in her beautiful pregnancy glory. Seriously, isn't she practically the most gorgeous pregnant woman you've ever seen??
