2007 Easter invitation
This past weekend, to celebrate the resurrection of our Lord, we flew to North Carolina to visit our good friends, JD, Andrea, and their 4-week-old baby boy Taliesin. As always, it was a fun-filled, entertaining visit.

Every year, JD and Andrea prepare a very large and very elegant meal to celebrate the Easter holiday. It's their way of recognizing the supreme

importance of Christ's resurrection and looking forward to the feast we will all have together someday as believers in the Kingdom of God. The menu and theme of the meal are different every year. This year, they had a "kids" theme (to recognize the wonderful changes both of our families have gone through in the past year) and the menu was a little more untraditional than usual. The highlight of the weekend's gourmet festivities was a 7.75-pound red snapper, which was much larger than was anticipated, and which caused JD and Andrea to become well-known by the fish mongers at their local grocery store.

The best part of the weekend was being able to spend time with people who are very dear to us and to meet their new son. JD and Andrea are already such good parents, and it will be fun to raise our children together (even though we live so far away). We are very thankful for the chance to go see them this past weekend, and we look forward to the next time our families can reunite, wherever that may be.
