Jarvis Family Visit

We had an overnight visit from our good friends, the Jarvis'. They were the first lds family we met when we arrived at Camp Pendleton. We ended up getting into a house just down the street from them. They moved to Yuma, AZ the same week that we moved off base, so it's been a while since we'd seen them. Our children are all the same ages and play really well together, so it was great to see them for a little bit. Luke & Emry were so so excited that Sam, Nathan & Jane were coming for an overnight! All morning, before they arrived, I heard nothing but, "Is it time?" and " Are they here?"

When they did arrive, the kids all had a riot! They played like they hadn't missed a beat. It was really nice that all the big kids were occupied because it allowed me to chat with Melanie a lot and just have some adult convo...wonderful!

The whole gang-Carley, Emry, Jane, Andy, Nathan, Luke & Samuel

BFF-it's hard to say good bye.
Sam (the dad) is going to be participating in a Triathlon at Camp Pendleton in August, so they'll be coming to stay again...which was a good way to end the day. Otherwise my kids probably would've stowed away in Melanie's Van!!!! Thanks for visiting, see you soon!
