A Visit from the Bodine family!!!

A couple of weeks ago we had a wonderful visit from my brother John and his wife Lisa and their nine children. It was so much fun - we hadn't seen Lisa and the kids for 3 and 1/2 years!! Needless to say I barely recognized the kids... all of a sudden the oldest kids were young adults and we thoroughly enjoyed getting to know them in a completely new way. They are all such sweet, kind and pleasant children. Over the years I have wondered how on earth they can do all they do with so many kids, but they are really successful at parenting - they are all happy, well-adjusted, fulfilled kids who play sports, are homeschooled, and love the Lord! It was very pleasant to have them around. Seven of the kids are girls, so Hannah was absolutely in heaven with all the girl time.

Yeah, I know it. She does NOT look like she had nine children. She hasn't changed one bit in all these years - she looks exactly the same as the day they married. Quite sickening actually. But I still love her!!

The girls all had fun with the bunnies. We even managed to convince Lisa that those seven girls just HAVE to have two of our baby bunnies...

Who could say no to these faces??


Look at little Laura with two bunnies on her lap!! Isn't she a cutie pie??



We loved the full house! Hopefully they will return sooner than 3 and 1/2 years this time!!
