Neighbors

This past weekend, our neighbors, Jose & Kris, invited us over to help celebrate Camille's birthday. Camille is their daughter who just turned 3. She is adorable, and loves to visit us whenever possible! Elliot is their older child. He is 6, and loves to play with Erik. Erik enjoys his role of "big brother" to Elliot. They play well together. The "D's" haven't lived next to us real long, but we all get along so well, and we're blessed to have good neighbors (on both sides!)

Cabin Fever!

Alan and I are home from an absolutely incredible, wonderful, refreshing, exhausting, fun-filled weekend! We were able to spend the weekend with 2 other couples at a beautiful cabin in Potter County, about 3-3 1/2 hours north of here. Phil & Donna Huber invited us - and 2 other friends - Brian & Patty Gerber, to their cabin, out of the kindness and generosity of their hearts. (Either that, or they just felt sorry for us) ;-) Either way, we all had the time of our lives! Brian, who is a double amputee, was still able to go 4-wheeling, because we just put him in the back of the Gator between Patty, and a bunch of pillows! What rides we had! What beautful country! What an incredible chance to see God's awesome, gorgeous, immense creation...! We visited the PA Grand Canyon, saw deer and turkey every morning, went 4-wheeling, met new people, saw more stars than we can possibly see at home, visited a quaint, little church, laughed till we were crying, and made some new memories that we'll never forget!! We crammed a lot into a short time, but we had so much fun!!! We are so thankful to the Huber's for inviting us, and we are so blessed to have friends like them and the Gerber's!
