This past week we have had the privilege of seeing three different friends from the U.S. who are passing through. The first was my great friend and mentor from college, Beth. We got to have dinner with her as she passed through on her way back to the States. She had never met the boys, but they became fast friends. She brought some fun presents (like glow in the dark stickers, those little gel capsules that dissolve in water into a shape and other things) and Austin wanted her to spend the night.

Austin refused to pose, but Bennett didn't mind. Has it really been 10 years since I graduated from college?

It was great to catch up (the last time I saw her was the weekend I found out I was pregnant with Austin) and hang out for a bit. The next day we also saw two different friends who both lived in this city with us but now have moved back. I like living in a city where many people pass through on their way in or out...it is a nice way to get to connect.

In other news...Sunday (yesterday, March 14) it SNOWED AGAIN! I mean, it snowed all day, big, huge flakes pouring down. I taught Sunday School, so i had to go to church. Fortunately we found a cab right away (I prayed for it!) and caught a ride with neighbors home, but it was such a a mess out. Today was sunny and some melted, but the ground is still covered. I cannot believe it. Chris left Saturday and we definitely miss him, but are doing ok. We made paper chain #2 to countdown till he returns (13 days this time!).
