A visit from our good friends




The last 3 days we've had special visitors, our good friends the Backlunds. We sure had a great time with them. We love them so much! Jacob was crying when it was time for them to leave. I've never seem him so melancholy as he was this afternoon. It was heartbreaking!

The kids had a great time swimming and playing and going on a special trip to Fairytale Town (or as my kids call it, "Humpty Dumpty.") Trish and I had a nice mom's night out and went to Q'bole in Folsom for dinner and then to Color Me Mine for a bit of fun.

The Backlunds are such good friends of ours and we really look up to them as an example of a Godly family. They challenge us by living out their faith in their little daily happenings. (Like when they were at our house they modeled Jesus' servant heart by doing our dishes.) I hope that our family can be a witness to our friends too!
