friday + friends

we had the pleasure of having the hansen family over for dinner on friday night. we've been going through a lot of the same life stuff as they have. andrew, erik & i were all on the worship team together before any of us got married. the hansens got married the summer before we did & they left lincoln around the same time we did for andrew to pursue his PhD in south bend. bethany & i both supported our husbands through school in a brand new city. we both got prego about the same time and now we have daughter's the same age. to top it off, we all just moved back home to lincoln....so our lives have situationally been incredibly similar for the past couple years. it was fun catching up and watching our girls, adeline & evie, meet each other for the first time. what a great time.

while we were in seattle, i really enjoyed watching adeline grow through bethany's blog and pictures. it was also nice to have another mom to chat with - even if it was through emails/blogs. now that we are all back in l-town, it was fun to do it "live" for the first time with our daughters holding hands and playing with one another. erik cooked up some yummy food for us- including bone marrow. i know that sounds disgusting but it actually was quite tastey! thank you bethany & andrew for being brave eaters! miss adeline, you are even cuter in person :)
