Visit with friends!

We have had quite a busy few days! We headed down to Oklahoma for a birthday/family reunion for Jake's family and stopped by to see some of our friends on the way down. We picked up Jake's sister and her daughter in Kansas City and stopped in Stillwater, OK to visit the Tullio's. It was a great night visiting with them! Thank you so much for feeding us and putting us up for the night. Madison and Jacob had fun running around the house and playing together. We wish they lived closer :)

Isn't Madison just beautiful!! Look at that little pose:)
Our friends have a boxer puppy named Pepper ~ Madison thought her tail and ears were fun to try and grab. This is actually one of the few times she was sitting still long enough for Madison to touch her.
Friday morning when the kids woke up they were so cute reading books and playing with a puzzle on the fireplace. So cute! It was nice to have a place to stay and it was so good to see our dear friends again! They are moving to Houston soon so we were very thankful to be able to see them before they made the move. We will have to try to visit in Houston!!
When we left Stillwater we drove to Norman, OK to visit our other friends the Knehans. They have 3 children so all the kids were running around playing.
They guys were working (aka playing) on the computers and the kids were playing. We ate lunch there and hung out. We really do miss our friends! No, not enough to move back - we LOVE Pella but we still do miss our friends!
I was dying at how much hair Cruz has! He is not even one year old and they have already cut his hair 3 times! That is just crazy! He was so cute!
Jacob's new thing is to ride things. He loves to ride toys that are made to ride but he is also trying to ride all the cars and trucks that he drives around.
We were very grateful for our friends who let us crash at their homes and play with their toys! It really made the drive down much more enjoyable being able to break it down into smaller trips.
