what a weekend

We finally had a beautiful spring weekend and lucky me, I was on my new work schedule so I actually got to enjoy it with family and friends. We had a last minute bbq Saturday night, lunch with some friends after church Sunday, and an afternoon meander through the Brookside Art Fair. All in perfectly delightful "California weather".

Some of our best friends here include Laura and Nathanael Lyons. (She has the long hair and glasses, he has the long hair.) Laura wants to be theology/philosophy professor one day and Nathanael is looking into nursing. (I think he might have studied international policy or something politically minded in his undergrad days...he's also a CUBS FAN! Yippee!) These guys are great fun and super with Titus.

The other couple pictured is Mindy and Josh Hancock. In addition to being our pastors, they are our friends...maybe that should be stated the other way around. We love spending time with these guys and feel so blessed by their vision for and leadership of our church.
