Our Friends Came to Visit!

This morning we had Josie, Caleb, and Carly over to our house. We had so much fun with them! Brinley LOVES to play with her friends.
When they got to our house, Mommy had some dishes and laundry to do. Then we all went to the park (Mommy forgot her camera... ugh!) When we came home, we ate some lunch...

THIS is how a kid says "Thank You" for lunch!

 We played some games...

The a quick trip to Target and then took them back to their (VERY CLEAN) house.

Thanks for coming over today, friends! We love you!

ps- You might see these pictures and read what we did and think these are just some ordinary kids. That's where you are wrong. Dead wrong. These are some fun, special, smart, entertaining, inspiring friends of ours. They are so very special to us for so many different reasons. Two of the main reasons are 1) They are FUNNY! 2) They are inspiring/encouraging.
Here are some fun quotes from the day to show you how funny they can be:
When asked if she or her siblings likes the food I am preparing, Carly replies-
"We just like delicious."

After tasting his first kiwi, Caleb decided they tasted like strawberries. He then looked into the fruit bowl with strawberries and kiwi and said
"It's like a bowl of two strawberries but one looks more like watermelon."

These are some encouraging things I overheard throughout the day-
When playing the Wii, Caleb says
"We make a good team, Jos."

While driving to Target, Josie spots a sign that says "Nothing lasts forever", Caleb replies-
"Except Jesus."


What great kids. Justin and Julie... keep up the good work. You have wonderful children.
