Great friends

We feel so blessed to have some amazing friendships with co-workers, family and people we worship with at church. They afford us opportunities to build relationships, expand our mindset, challenge our thinking.... and occassionally do something we never would have been able to.

Tonight, a friend of ours from church, who is a pilot and flies F-16's, allowed Tim and Eli to come out and watch the planes take off.  The boys had a great time! Tim also got to invite some co-workers and their kids.  Although I was not able to go, I am so glad "the boys" could spend some quality time together watching the planes! I talked to Eli on the phone afterward and he was clearly excited, telling me all about the planes and how they had to go to bed, so sadly they were on their way home to see me!  It was priceless.... And since a picture is worth more than a thousand words....

Eli is sitting on our friend's lap (Josh) inside an observatory vehicle.  Tim's co-workers are taking a photo opp on the passenger side :) Even Tim was grinning ear to ear when he got home!
