Last night about eight in the evening Kristy and family arrived. They are on their way to Costa Rica for an eight month immersion in learning the Spanish language as part of their preparation to become missionaries on the Texas Mexico border. It will be quite an adventure for them. They fly there on the 23rd of this month. Fortunately for us, they are stopping for a couple of nights here to visit with us.
We had prepared a late dinner, and since there are seven of them, we ate outside. As it darkened, out came the candles and as one of our favorite English actors might say, "Welcome to our candlelight supper." Hyacinth would not have approved of Chinett plates, but she would have approved of the delightful ongoing conversation. The grands helped both in preparation and cleanup. They grow up so fast. Today is a birthday for one of them, James. We will celebrate his birthday tonight, as well as his dad's, with some chocolate cake and ice cream. Max was delighted to have kids to fuss over him, not that he lacks for attention. Happy travels.
