Visiting Friends

Many years ago Jordan went on a missions trip with the organization Youth With a Mission (YWAM). It began with a Discipleship Training School in New Zealand. Then they went on an outreach portion to Thailand and Cambodia, everything totaled about 6 months. (It was actually just after this trip that we began to date, after being friends for a couple years, and having known each other since elementary school.) He met and became friends with people from all over the world, the leaders of his outreach portion were an engaged couple from Germany, and they were on "holiday" in California and stopped by to stay with us for a couple days! Chris and Teresa are married now, and we loved having them over. We took them sailing yesterday around the San Diego Harbor, we docked in Coronado and had dinner at Miguel's. Then enjoyed the lights of the city as we made our way back. Uncle Taylor was our Captain, and some of his friends came along as well. I'm not gonna lie...it wasn't all sunbathing and relaxation for us! We definitely kept many watchful eyes and hands on Clara and took turns keeping her entertained and Coleton happy. It was a pretty long day for the kids, we got on the boat around 2:30 and didn't get back until around 10:00pm. Then we still had to unload and drive home. They did great though for how tiring of a day it was.It was so fun to have them, they reminisced about their YWAM days, and we had fun figuring out all the differences and similarities to living in our different countries. Maybe one day when the kids are older we can go visit them in Germany!
