You will see so many of my posts this year are about catching up with family and friends in the US. It really is a big priority for us since we're usually gone for 3+ years at a time living overseas. We try to see everyone, but it doesn't always happen, and that does make us sad, it really does. We love you all so much and know that we're trying to fit it all in!
Family outing with the Indiana Stamps was to a neat Amish town about an hour or so away from Valparaiso.
The kids had a good time playing together.
Cousins!
We all love our history!
Super cool oven in the kitchen of the main house.
Then, we started heading south to North Carolina, but not before stopping in for a couple of nights in Kentucky to see friends who used to live in Kyrgyzstan with us.
Friends, exchanging birthday gifts. These girls have shared their birthday celebrations with each other since 2015. Love how even though they are apart, when they get back together there is a sweetness!
Game time together!
Again, these boys have been friends since 2015. We are so glad our families are connected in an incredible way.
Breakfast together before we hit the road.
Sissi was super patient...6 weeks post birthday and she finally got her guitar.
The boys are out with the other guys from church, in the meadow. Throwing knives, doing archery, shooting guns...you know, just a fun Fire on the Mountain kind of weekend.
So, so thankful for the beginnings of these kinds of relationships. Praying they all grow this year, together!
