Our First Overnight House Guests!

We don't have blinds on the window and french door around the fireplace, so there was too much light, but they are still great pictures of the Browns!! :)

I have always loved having company, and I especially love having overnight company! It's just something about time spent with good friends, it's just so much fun!! So when Julie Brown, a friend of ours from Wake Forest, NC, sent me a message on Facebook saying they were coming to ATL, I was so excited! We had just seen our dear friends the Dews a few weeks earlier (we met Jamie, Tara, and the kids half way since we are so far south, so they didn't get to see our home and church this time, but we hope next visit that they can come south and maybe even stay with us! ).

So when Julie sent me the email saying they were coming this way too we couldn't have been more excited that now the Browns were coming for a visit!! Their original plan was to come by on Friday and see our new home and our church, but their plans changed some at the last minute, so they ended up not sure where they were going to stay the night! So of course I told them to come stay with us!! We had only been in our house alittle over a week and we still had boxes everywhere, but if they didn't mind neither did we!! The Lord has truly blessed us with our new home and our desire is to share that blessing with others whenever possible!! I wasn't sure it would work for them because we are alot farther south then everyone else they were coming to Atlanta to see, but I think it all worked out ok!!

Because of all the construction on I-85, they got here alittle later than planned on Thursday night, so Nicholas was sound asleep and didn't get to see Chase (Chase started school that Friday, so she was up and gone before everyone else was awake) We had breakfast and we also got to take Daniel, Julie, and the kids to see our church! It was a great time!! I am just so thankful that we got to spend time with the Browns, they became dear friends to us in Wake Forest, and we had such a great time visiting with them and we hope they will make many more trips to GA and maybe even stay with us again!!

Sweet Elizabeth, she was still so tiny when we left Wake Forest, now look how big she has gotten and she is just so sweet and lovable!! :)

Nicholas loved playing the Wii, while Ethan enjoyed checking out all the toys we have here for our grandkids!! All the kids always enjoy having their picture made with Boz!
Here are a few pictures from the church (I think Ethan might follow in his Daddy's footsteps!!)
I also wanted to say THANKS to Julie for the hat you sent us!! Now Tommy can stop fussing about me wearing his all the time! HAHAHA! And Chase loved the chocolates, she said you can have her room ANYTIME!!
