Old Friends

While we were visiting Dave and Amanda we met up with Dave and Jane Wright. Dave was the youth pastor in Hartford when dad was the pastor there. It is always strange to see people in a different context and this was no exception. Very bizarre to think that having started in little old Hartford England they are now in Charleston SC and we are in Atlanta GA! It was good to catch up as I really miss them!

This photo is missing Steven as the one we tried to do with the timer turned out horribly, so Steven took on the role of photographer for this one!

When we were out walking around the market in Charleston in 100 degree heat, we popped into the year round Christmas store to enjoy their air conditioning. For those of you who know Steven well, you will know that he cannot survive without his Diet Coke so we found the ideal Christmas Tree ornament for him:


Needless to say, as fitting an ornament as it was, we could not bring ourselves to buy a coke can to hang on our tree!

On the way home on Sunday we stopped by to see Mays and Becky Boyd. Mays is Steven's friend from when they were in Kindergarten together so they go way back. They have just had their first baby, Tucker Mays Boyd. He is tiny and so precious! Here is the latest addition to their family.



All in all it was a great weekend away seeing family, friends and babies!
