Phoenix Trip


This past weekend I took the kids for a quick trip back to Phoenix to visit with friends. We are so thankful to the Penkoff Family - TJ, Katie, & Owen - for letting us stay with them and treating us like family. Natasa & Ajda were visiting from Slovenia as well, so it was a fun party at the Penkoff House! It was so wonderful being together again; the kids picked up right where they left off a year and a half ago, and we adults did as well! Jacob & I were so excited to see many of our Phoenix friends at a park playdate on Saturday. The kids had a great time playing and we got to chat about whats been going on in our lives for the last 2 months.

The weekend flew by way too quickly, and Natasa & Ajda are on their way back to Slovenia. Hopefully it will not be another year a and half before we see them again.
