We love visitors

Visitor's spoiled us with their presence this month. We always love the opportunity to have visitors stay with us. First we had Wade's brother Justin, who flew in from Baltimore and was able to stay with us for 10 days. What a treat to have so much time with Justin. He seriously is one of the easiest guest we've ever had. He is just part of the family, he pitched in on getting the house ready for Thanksgiving. He was such a good sport to sleep on the couch in the family room where all the action always was when it was his bedtime. We had some great late night talks. His easy going nature is so fun to be around. Wade's parents drove down from Utah to be with us for Thanksgiving. It was such a special holiday to have so much family with us. We feel so blessed to have these wonderful people apart of our lives and cherish the time we get to spend together. Justin felt like he was at a resort. He would go out everyday and lay in the sun and read. It was good seeing him get some rest and relaxation because he is such a hard worker in Dental school.We also got a bonus visitor, Meg came to stay with us. We were so excited when she called telling us that she was coming down for an interview. I got her an interview with my friend and she got the job! So now she will be moving by us! We had such a fun few days, it felt like I was on vacation. We had so many good laughs, and went to a movie, shopping decorated for Christmas and made yummy food.Meg was able to go to Institute and lunch with us! It was wonderful having her and we are looking forward to more fun times with her.

I love that picture with Justin and Roxy, I need a copy of that, we had such a wonderful time, which we always do when we get to spend time with the Whitings, you have to be the best host, you make people feel so loved and like you actually are happy that we are there, that is another of your wonderful gifts, we are so lucky that Wade found you and that Justin "talked Wade into marrying you because you had a cute personality! Love you Monica you certainly are the BEST!!!!
