we had the JOY of getting to see our dear friends bobby and claire and joe and lisa this week. this first picture was taken in a mexican restaurant in colorado springs where bobby and claire are debriefing their last 3 years in japan. we were SO SO SO excited to get to see them before they head to england for school - and to have their baby! (lucy is holding a dog from bobby and claire. he has affectionately been named "ryu-ryu," in honor of the givers.)
the later pictures are of lucy and nolan, joe and lisa's little guy. very fun to have the two kids together - and to catch up with joe and lisa. such a gift. (loving the facial expressions...)
