Friends

It is so good to have so many friends here when we are far away from our family. We are eagerly awaiting the visits of some of our family from New Jersey, but in the meantime baby Elissa has had her share of visitors since she arrived and we are all enjoying the company! (not to mention the generosity and yummy food brought along with them.) Thank you everyone!

Our good friends Jeff and Davene are expecting their third son in January. This is their oldest boy, Josiah, getting some practice holding a new little one!

Uncle Greg had a planned visit on his way through up to NY to visit his family. Baby Elissa was nice enough to come a little early and meet her Uncle Greg!

We have been so blessed with our church family here; So many wonderful, loving people. All of our kids love Rebekah and she is always willing to give us a hand when we need it. Here she is holding the new baby for the first time. She was the first person to hold Elissa other than us and hospital staff. Thanks Rebekah!
