The Adventure

We began our traveling adventure with a mini weekend trip to Lynchburg. We went to Angela's wedding and got to visit some Grace friends. It was great to see Ang home from Korea, and see her marry a great dude named Jason. Good times had by all! Thanks to the Pattersons for letting us crash at their place.

We went back to Louisville Sunday after church and got just a tiny bit of sleep. EARLY Monday morning our dear generous friend John Moody picked us up at 4:30am and took us to the airport, and we flew to CALIFORNIA! We rented a car and drove to Redlands, Augie's coffee shop - the best coffee in town, and the place of our dearest friends Chad & Erika. We put on some mustaches and stood outside their shop window. Erika spotted us and tried to tell Chad it was us, but both were in disbelief (they had no idea we were coming, we had worked it out with Erika's mom and their employee Mike). Erika finally kicked over the trash can, started crying, and the 2 came rushing us with a tackle hug. It was great! Since then we have been hanging out - going to the beach, bumming around, chilling at the shop and such. The Macleans even went to Disney one day that the Johnstons had to work. Hundreds of photos have been taken as you can imagine - and a sampling will be posted ASAP.

HUGE thanks to Debbie's grandma and grandpa for watching our adorable little terror Bode while we're gone. They say he's doing well. We're glad we don't have to worry about him being in good hands while we're away, though we know he can be quite a handful! He may have put on a good 5 pounds by the time we get back. EEEKK! our baby giant...

Photos to come!
