Saturday Visitors

We had a great Saturday! We were blessed with a day full of visiting which was really nice. Sherry, Jeff, Kate, Elizabeth, and doggy Chester stopped by for several hours to meet Ella on their way to Jeff's parent's house in Philadelphia.

It was nice to see family and really great for Lilly to see her cousins!

It was very warm so they girls headed out before they left for a little time on the swing set.

Nice family shot!

Sherry and her family left around 4 p.m. and at 4:15 p.m. Krissy and her family came for a visit! Yay! I hate that Krissy and I live so far apart but it's so nice that she comes to NJ often and we get to visit and our girls get to play. Here the girls are playing with Lilly's new play kitchen.

We had a great time together! Michael came also and he and Andy visited while me, Krissy, and the girls hung out. We had dinner together and shared some great conversations and time together. I already miss her so much but am glad they arrived home to Minnesota safely today. Savannah is a sweetheart. I wish our girls could spend more time together but I won't be greedy. I'm thankful for the time we do have.

I enjoyed a full day of visiting. We were wiped out by bedtime and while Ella did a great first stretch of sleeping she was then up every hour or so to eat (hungry from a long stretch at the start of the night) so I am very tired today. But now the day is over and I'm so very thankful for my family and friends and this wonderful holiday season. I am looking forward to what 2009 brings our way!
