We woke up and headed to the congregation meeting Erik and I attended when we lived in Dubuque as a married couple. Aaron and Cindy still attend this congregation as do several other couples we are still close to. Several of the friends the same but many new ones as we expected. They had remodeled the Kingdom Hall and it looked really different - much nicer! Finn had a great time playing with all the kids as is to be expected. Everyone doted on Elan which he loved of course. It was so nice for everyone to see him. We know all of our friends have been praying for us as well as sending tons of cards and gifts so we felt it was good to be able to thank everyone in person and give loads of hugs. WE even got the Sue A. My Book of Bible Stories sticker sheets so we are set for the summer!
That evening we then headed to our dear friends house Beth and Nate who I grew up with. They had my favorite - Happy Joe's Taco Pizza! They had just bought their new home last year and as typical Beth style the house is totally finished and gorgeous already this time. The kids are just beautiful - I can't get over how they have grown in only a year.
