Special Visitors

2 of our closest friends,  Chris and Heather, live in Atlanta and moved down there in 2007.  While they lived up here, they were in our small group, and we would hang out often.  We were very sad when they moved, but have kept up our friendship and see them several times a year.  Whenever we drive down to MS for camp or other vacations, we always stop and stay with them in Atlanta.  Chris and Heather also come to the crawfish boil every Easter too.  They have become part of the family.

Chris's mom, sister, and niece still live in Raleigh.  This weekend C & H were up here to visit them.  The last time we saw C & H was in October when they came into town for the fair.  Sometimes it might just be a quick visit, but we take any time with them that we can get.  C & H came over to our house around 3pm while the kids were taking their naps.  It was nice that we got some adult time first to talk and catch up.  The kids woke up from their naps and we played and hung out for a while.  C & B went outside to got a fire set up and ready for later.  We had pizza for dinner and then roasted marshmallows for dessert.  Since it was Saturday,  we had to give our kids a bath like normal, and then bed at 8pm.  After the kids were in bed, the 4 of us, watched Real Steel.  C & H left around 11:30 pm and then they drove back to Atlanta today.  We had such a good time visiting with them.  I believe the next time we'll see each other will be in Hammond over Easter for the crawfish boil.  They told me they were planning to attend.  I hope they are able to come. 

H works for Home Depot right now and is enjoying it.  C is a student at Kennesaw State and will graduate in August.  He's applying for jobs at the moment and is seeking the path that God has for him right now.  We know that C & H will do whatever God has called for them.  H's job is stable, but if C were to get something that required a move, she would support her husband.  It's always nice to visit with them and catch up.  They are great people and we love them.
