Special Friends

Our friends Bryan and Cindy along with their kids Courtney and Caleb came to visit us for a few days. They were our neighbors in Ripon and moved about 2 years before we did. We hadn't seen each other in about 3 years. It was incredibly wonderful to catch up with them, relive fun memories, and spend really great time together on some outings. To add to the party, our friends Marc and Lynn along with their kids Kaitlyn and Michael from Ripon were in Michigan at the same time! These pictures aren't in any great order, but represent some of the fun we had. Of course, we had great laughs over some good food! We also went on a sand dune ride, saw the sunset over Lake Michigan, went go-carting, hit the Blanford Nature Center, and toured the Calvin campus. We are all exhausted after staying up late and getting up early, but we wouldn't trade those hours to talk and laugh for anything! What a great joy it was to visit with such special friends!
