This week we had the pleasure of having the Bixby family visit us during their deputation trip out west. Since moving to Texas, we’ve been looking forward to their visit, and I’d been anticipating being able to host and show our home to “family.”
Tim, Ruth, Micaiah, and Miriam arrived at our apartment a little before noon and we went out to Chick-fil-A for lunch. (Unfortunately, Josh could not join us, since he had to be at his 12:30 class.) After lunch I took Micaiah and Miriam back to our apartment, so we could play while the grownups spent some time by themselves. We made brownies, colored, took naps, played Uno, and read. During nap time, I finished getting dinner ready.
Tim and Ruth joined us for dinner and we had a wonderful time of fellowship together. It was a blessing to hear about their deputation travels and what the Lord is doing in their lives. Their visit was a great encouragement to us.
I was blessed seeing you all together, and I know what that meant to all of you. What an incredible dinner you put together, Amy, while and in addition to babysitting.
What a fun time of fellowship – for the adults and kids. 🙂
I’m so glad you were all able to be together! What a blessing! From the pictures it looks like everyone was having a wonderful time. (It made me miss our many visits around the dinner table.)
I’m so glad you got to be together. Thanks for all the pictures. I loved them.
Awesome! 🙂 So glad you were able to have such wonderful fellowship!
We SOOOO enjoyed our visit with you both! We, too, had been looking forward to our time together and enjoyed being with you even more than we had known we would!!! Thanks for the delicious meal and the fabulous company. You guys are the best!
I loved all of these pictures. Their family is SO cute. maybe someday Jon and I can make it out there….The picture of the kids making brownies is by far my favorite. Glad you got a little “taste of home.”
so glad you could have some time together. if only you weren’t so far away–i’d love to pop in! Looks like a great meal–you’re culinary skills are getting quite good!! 🙂 Glad you had a good time.
Have loved your blogs – especially about the Pumpkin Prayer and the visit by the Bixby family. Sounds like you are keeping VERY busy, Amy, in spite of not finding that perfect job – or that perfect job finding YOU!
Thanks so much for calling on my birthday. I had SOOO many great calls that day. It almost made it worth turning 77 years old!
Love you both very much!
