Once Seth took Boards we headed south for vacation.
We went to OKC to visit the Blomgren clan, our best friends from college. We have been blessed to get to see them about once a year since we graduated. It is always a wonderful time. We saw them last right after Claire was born but with no Blomgren kids. This time all the kids were together, 6 total! All the boys had a blast and the two little girls did well bonding too! We didn't do much but hang out and talk and eat. It was so relaxing.
While in OKC I was able to see a couple other friends from college: Marina and Debra. I hadn't seen Marina since graduation and we had a wonderful time catching up and making bows! I hadn't seen Debra in 1 1/2 years so I hadn't met her little boy Nico. It was great to visit with Debra and meet Nico (he is such a doll).
We left OKC and headed to Dallas to visit the Burbridge's. They are friends from Springfield who moved a year ago. We have missed them so much. Luke loves them. I mean he really loves them. They are family to us so they have family names: Uncle Chris and Aunt Vikki! Luke always wants to see Uncle Chris. We hadn't seen them in 7 months, but Luke took to them like he always has.
We were able to go to church and worship with the Burbs which is definitely one of our favorite things to do with them. We also just hung out, ate, swam and went to Cabela's! It was a marvelous time with marvelous friends.
The kids survived the drive back home. The vacation was wonderful but it was good to get back home too!
