Home

"Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some stay for a while, leave footprints on our hearts, and we are never, ever the same."


Home. Family. Friends. Love.

We were blessed to be able to spend several days with our dear friends who now live in the Volunteer State (we don't hold that against them) in December. They crashed at our house on their way to visit family in Virginia, and then again on their way back to TN. 
When we met the S family, we lived in Wake Forest. They were leaders of our small group at North Wake Church. It was a blessing to have the opportunity to do life together. Our family dynamics were a lot different back then! During their stay, we had four adults, four children under 5, and one crazy pup in our house. It was great! They were greatly missed when they left. Every day Sophie talks about this dear family. Every. Day. Although miles separate us, every time we get together, those miles just melt away. We just pick up where we left off. It feels like home.

Thanksgiving: A Weekend Trip

The weekend before Thanksgiving we hopped in the car, dropped off the pup, and headed to Wake Forest. It's never long enough. I don't know that one week would be long enough though. We were so blessed to be able to do life with these dear friends. Oh how I miss them! Of course I didn't take enough pictures. But here are some of the ones I did take.

Having tea with the Princesses

Oh, T. I miss you! I'm so glad I got to meet C!! 

 Would you like a cup?

Sophie loved playing with M 

Lots of hugs 

Sophie needed to get in on the action 

Dear friends 

The out-take :) 

K let Sophie bring home this baby doll 

She loves this baby! 

She has slept with the baby every night since we got back.

Visitors





Not to mention several of our neighbors, and we can't forget Grandpa and Grandma Cornelison who stayed with us while we were in the hospital. Unfortunately I didn't get pictures of them with Sophie because only two people were allowed in to see her at a time.
