Good times with good friends

Tyler has made it to Korea safely, has unpacked everything and already has a broken computer.  I guess he's officially in his new home!  He's enjoying his job (even though he's not exactly sure what it is yet) and getting settled in.  It's going to be a long year, but we're certain it will go quickly.

I'm spending a week with my best friend, Sarah, and her sweet little family.  It's been such a blessing to spend quality time with my childhood friend and her children, a gentle reminder of the circle of life.  Evelyn is three-and-a-half and an energetic one at that!  She runs whenever possible, even between her play room and the kitchen, LOVES to entertain her new baby sister and has a heart of gold.  She's always good for a smile, a giggle or a tickle!  Vivian, the new baby, is five months old and the smiley-est baby I've ever met!  She is almost always happy and has just started eating solid foods--butternut squash, carrots, sweet potatoes and oatmeal--she loves them all!  As I said, I'm so blessed to have the opportunity to spend good quality time with them and be a part of their lives. 

Here are a few of my favorite pics, so far:
