nice long visit

We loved having an extended March visit with the Links...while also thinking and praying and hoping and wishing that they may just be moving back here before we know it.  ;)  They arrived Thursday night, so we started our time Friday with a laid-back schoolroom morning...




Showing Mads and Sam the new Kid History :)


Jenn is awesome and brought fun St. Patrick's Day crafts and activities...my kids love getting to do these things when they're with her :).








And then outside time, rolling down the hill in the front yard ;)




Saturday, we had some girl time when the mamas, Madi and Greer went to Greer's rehearsal for her first ballet, the Roar of Love.  It was beautiful and so special for Greer to have Jenn and Madi there to watch...and then we topped it all off with a little ice cream treat from Jenn :)


That evening was my fave...all of us got to be home together, the weather was amazing, kids had fun playing, daddies grilled some yummy dinner and we just had visiting time without anywhere to be :).  Can't really think of anything better...







Some bedtime funnies :)









 And love :)



 Park time after lunch Sunday







Loved the St. Patty's Day fruit rainbow Jenn and the kids made :)



And some yummo cake pops from our neighbor friends!


As we were straightening the house and getting the babies to bed, the bigs made themselves at home with books behind the couch.  On their own.  Love this view :))


Getting ready to say bye on Tuesday...all fun and games until...



...somebody is sad that her friends are gone :(


But it's almost final that other weekend's events mean that our fave buds will be back here doing life with us in just a little while...it is a gift straight from the Lord and we.are.so.grateful. :)))
