Finding Lori!

May 9, 2009 I was able to celebrate Lori's 35th birthday with her at Kona Grill!  This was so special for me because I have been searching for her (3-4x's) a year for the past 15 years via Google, Qwestdex.com, MySpace, and Facebook of course!  Who knew that because I was spelling her maiden name Middlestat instead of Mittelstadt that being off 4 letters would cause 15 long years of separation!  

I was 2 weeks shy of 16 years old and got my first job as a hostess at Frontier Pies.  Lori was a waitress and the older sister that I always wanted!  We hit it off from day one &  I told her anything & everything!  After working there and becoming good friends with Lori for 2.5 years....my boyfriend Mike had moved to Colorado and came back as a surprise to Arizona.  I was scheduled to work the entire weekend that he was visiting......so since no one could/would cover my shift....i never went back to the Pie again!  I up & quit to be able to hang with Mike all weekend.  Ever since I left I have constantly thought about Lori & attempted numerous times to look her up.....Until one day at the gym back in March 2009 I spotted her in the kids care & the rest is history!  We picked up right were we left off & it feels like no time has gone by!  She is my long lost BFF!!!!
