Our trip 3

First off, hubby doesn't think anything will become of this job offer. It sounds like they have interviewed other people for the position that meet more of the job skills necessary. So we just wait to see what God has in store :)
As for the rest of our trip, we spent time catching up with family and friends. We had a nice visit with the kids great aunt (my Aunt L!) and then we were off to see their great-grandparents for an afternoon. Hubby always enjoys going down and walking my grandparents property. He thinks it is so gorgeous and prays one day to have a similar set up such as that! We were able to get some 4 generation photos and it was wonderful seeing my grandparents play with their newest great grandchild. Great grandpa used to work for the railroad and the kids like looking at all his trains! Several years back he even made a life size train and track in his backyard which I enjoyed a couple times growing up :)
We also met with friends which have children the same age as ours. It is so funny watching the kids interact with each other. They also gave us bags of clothes filled with coats, shoes, summer and winter clothing! We don't have to worry about his wardrobe for the next year or so! I have never seen a boy get so excited about new clothes before....especially the spider shirts. Thank you guys :) and praise the Lord! Here is a picture my friend took of the kids. We then finished off our visit with a surprise birthday celebration for moi a few weeks early....what a yummy cake!! It was such an enjoyable trip and short lived but greatly needed.

  1. I love how you took out the candles on the cake to take the pictures, but I can still make out the holes! :) Glad oldest boy likes the shirts, but mine was the same way when we bought them- spiders are VERY cool! Finding it harder buying stuff for the older ages now because all the shirts have horrible attitudes like, "I'll sell my sister" or, "The cat ate my homework and threw it back up, would you like it?" So we'll see what he gets later, but it won't be that!
