It was so good in Atlanta to visit with our family and friends. Sometimes we wish we could see alot of these people more than we do, so it was good to have a few days to kick back and see everyone. Here are a few pics.
We visited at Connextion Church with our lifelong friends, Clay and Jody, Bryan and Angie. We really had a great time, and the kids completely enjoyed it. Lunch was awesome and the three couples and all of the kids ate a meal without any major incident. It was weird to me that all of the children took up with each other so easily. It was almost as if they knew that their parents were friends and that it was ok for them to be friends too. Oh, by the way, special thanks to 'Uncle' Bryan for taking all the kids out to Cold Stone while the adults talked. I'm still not sure who got the better end of that deal.
As soon as we got home from lunch, the kids and I headed out to the park to meet Mendi, Dave, Toree, Tyler and the Tan Man. My kids have been looking forward to this day with the cousins since the spitball incident at the last Merritt family reunion. They absolutely had a blast, while Dave, Mendi and I solved the worlds problems. It got dark before any of us got done. Here are a few pics.
Since last Sunday we have returned back to Arkansas, visited with a few CMA contacts and basically jumped into 2005 with both feet. We are incredibly excited about all the possibilities of the new year, but we know that through all of it, we are very blessed and special to our Father God. We as a family pray that our friends will enjoy this year living in the special smile of God.
