Playing with the boys

We had our dear Gary, Alysha and their boys Ethan and Caleb over for lunch on Saturday. I met Alysha ten years ago when we went on a mission trip to Russia together and I met Gary about 8 years ago. That was long before there was a “Gary and Alysha”. They started dating not long after Sam and I. We were all in the same marriage equipping class at church and they were married a little over 2 months after us. Ethan came quickly and we told them we would catch them on the next round of kids. Sure enough we did. Katherine and Caleb are 2 months apart. We always enjoy getting together and spending quality time with one another. It is harder to do with three toddlers in tow. We have decided that at this stage we should not go out to eat but hang out at one of our houses. So, they came over. The men grilled burgers. the kids played in the yard and the women talked. Hooligan just barked, tied to a tree out of range of the kids.
