The LORD your God is with you, he is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing. Zephaniah 3:17

A Fun Visit

 My sweet friends Amy and Sarah came to meet baby Caleb! We have been planning this visit for months, trying to coordinate everyone's busy schedules with kids, work, etc, and it finally came together! I was so excited to see my girls, we were long overdue for some catching up and girl time.  Sarah now lives in the Atlanta area not too far from Amy, so they carpooled on over to Birmingham together.  A much quicker trip than our last flight out to Corpus Christi, Texas to meet Sarah's twin babies in 2010.

  There was lots of snuggling and passing Caleb back and forth!  He didn't mind the extra attention at all...

We did a little local shopping, had lunch, then back to the house for naps (baby and big girls, too!) Daddy was sweet to take the boys all day Saturday for a special boy day. They were gone literally all day- like 8am to 7pm! They had a blast at the warehouse building model rockets and a launch/command center. Needless to say, they were worn out when they got home. The girls enjoyed dinner out at my favorite restaurant, Firebirds. It was so nice for all us mommies to have a few hours to leisurely dine, chat, and not worry about anyone else! Especially, the sitting down to eat part with no one wanting what's on your plate and not getting up five times during the meal, yes, a perfect night! I'm so thankful for these sweet friends and the time we had together. So blessed to have had them in my life for over twenty years, crazy! Looking forward to our next get together- maybe at the beach with no kids at all!
