A special month in the States

In case our faithful readers are unaware, we have been in the States for 2 weeks now and are having a wonderful time. We spent a week with Eli's parents in Naperville, IL and Eli's sister Alyssa and her 4 boys surprised us by driving almost 4 hours from MI to see us our first day back!

 Eli's brother and his soon-to-be wife, Krista hosted a lovely brunch at Caleb's house with several friends we went to college with in Chicago.

The boys enjoyed helping Opa with several projects

 the kids are loving the beautiful parks/playgrounds!

We are enjoying every family meal, outing, and moment together. The wedding is this weekend so the fun will only increase. Thank you Lord for this incredible gift to be here!
