What a privilege it was this week to play host to two sets of extended family couples. Although it really is not extended family since our family is so large.
Ben's oldest brother blessed our home by coming to visit with his wife, Delores. We were surprised and Evelyn had a fever at the time, but in a family this large somebody is always carrying some kind of germ around. We kept her out of their way as much as we could. It was so good to see them and have them rejoice with us at God's gracious provisions for our family. They were traveling from SC to Virginia, where their new house is being finished and we spent alot of time enjoying their stay. I had not budgeted in for that in our budget so I am making a note that I must hide some treats away from the children for just such occurrences in the month.
While I was feeding them breakfast, which was pretty sparse, seeing this is the end of our budget cycle; a phonecall came in and Ben's nephew had a flight delay and was in town for a few hours. He is a Doctor of Psychology and it was indeed a privilege to play hostess to him and his wife for a while. What do you do with a doctor nephew? There was not enough time to play tennis or golf so we took them house shopping. It was so fun!
I hope that the next visitors are my family!
