Long Time No See

As I mentioned on Saturday, we have dear friends (Tuff & Mary) in town this week.  We loved getting to see them on Saturday for Grace's birthday party, but we were super excited to host a more intimate event last night for them with other former members of our old small group.  This time I had my camera ready!  April 1st is Grace's actual birthday, so we got to sing her "Happy Birthday" and watch her blow out her candle.  She was a little confused.

In this photo, Tuff & Mary are laughing because she had just tried to grab the flame!

Grace did such a great job hanging out happily as we all visited, chatted and caught up on Tuff & Mary's journey these past 9 months.  She ended up just staying up the whole time and she was a trooper.  She definitely got a little tired by the time we were hitting 10pm.  Here she is in her very pink pajamas and pacifier.  Such a sweetie!

Mary is great at forcing us to get group photos, so she initiated a photo opp last night.  I'm glad she did as the friends pictured here are so special to us.  It's nice to have a picture just to get a glimpse of how very blessed we are to do life with such great friends.

Tuff & Mary, we are so glad that you came back to the Burgh for a visit and that we got to have some time to catch up.  We will keep praying for you in this exciting time.  God bless!
