Friends

We shared some good times with friends in November.  First was a mission farewell for my friend Nicole's son Devan (and one of Nathan's good friends).  Devan is serving in Boston, Massachusetts.  I went to a ladies lunch celebrating by friends Lyndsi and Carrie's birthdays.  Alex started doing a "dude's night" with some of the guys who like to play Catan and other board games.  We're grateful for good friends!

One funny thing about the guys picture - that was kind of a joke.  It was really late that night and I messaged Alex to see if he was still there.  He decided to take a picture as a reply, and the guys gave him a hard time about needing proof of his whereabouts!  "Did she need proof?"  A "yes" would have been fine with me, but I'm glad for a picture to document the fun. This will probably be the only picture ever from the Dudes Nights - they don't really take pictures.  😀

We had one of Alex's fellow colleagues visit for dinner one Sunday evening in November.  They were a long way from home, visiting from Australia.  We hadn't seen them in quite a while so it was good to catch up with them and meet their kids.
