Company...and happenings...

We have been enjoying having company at our house...  Ivan and I with the 3 youngest boys left right after school Mon a week ago to go to Atlanta to pick up some very special people!!  We were privileged to have Ivan's parents come to visit us for a whole week!!  I didn't get my camera out like I should have while they were here...but Andrea snapped this one of them.  Love the expressions on their faces!! :-)

And then toward the end of the week, we also got more company!!  Ryan and Kendra arrived.  One of his main goals is to finish a few touches that he didn't get done before he left, so they are actually staying over at the house with Geneva.  So unfortunately, we don't get to see as much of them as we would like!!

Sat night we had a reception for them at the school gym.  We tried to use some of the same decor ideas that she had at the wedding, but did change the menu.  We had rolls, rice, grilled chicken thighs, green beans and tossed salad with cake and ice cream for dessert.  We did have the seasoned pretzels like they had at the wedding sitting on the tables.  And like I said before, I didn't think about toting my camera along, so I borrowed these pictures from Andrea also!!  :-)

This was the table displaying pictures from the wedding, their Bible to highlight a verse with your name beside it, and a place to sign saying you were here!!  :-)
