Reunited...

and it feels so good!!

In early May, a group from our church served as a Disaster Relief team in Alabama after the devastating tornadoes.   In the midst of such tragedy, deep friendships formed with the sweet people we traveled with.

So, we thought it was only appropriate to have a reunion of our "DR" team at the lake house!


The weekend was filled with lots of little ones and lots of laughs about our time together.

Here are the 6 kiddos:
Layton, Haddon, Luke, Mattie, Hope, and Abigail

and time at the lake house wouldn't be complete without dinner at Patti's and a day on the boat!

the big boys quickly decided that it was time that swimming turned into SWINGING!

What do you get when you add three rambunctious active boys with three sweet little girls?

Lots of giggles,

It was such a good feeling to be reunited with our sweet "Alabama" friends.

We left feeling so thankful for the new relationships that have formed through serving those in need, for His glory.
