We were very blessed to have our long-time friend, Donna, visit us all the way from Arizona last weekend. We got to know Donna from our workplace in Arizona, since before we were married.
So she has been a good friend for almost 30 years now!
And she has been there for all the big events in our lives!
She recently retired, and is enjoying some time traveling in her Mini-Winnie RV!
She pulled in at our house Friday night, and after getting she and her RV settled in,
we took a walk down to Swofford Pond!
We then drove up Green Mountain and watched the beautiful sunset!

On Saturday, Donna and Valerie stayed home to help Snowberry deliver her puppies,
while the rest of us headed to an Old-Fashioned Family picnic that some friends of ours host each year in Oregon.
Lots of friends of all ages!
A few of the guys making snow cones look cool!
A few games in the field . ..
On Sunday, after church, we headed out to the lake on PapaBob and Meemom's pontoon boat!
Thanks so much to Valerie and Caroline for taking most of these boating pictures!
This is Hanna, Donna's sweet little companion.
We had a barbeque for dinner on the boat!
On Monday evening, we enjoyed a very special visit with Richie and Lydia on their farm!
Beautiful quail eggs!
Surprise summer lambs . . . Cookie and Cupcake!
We enjoyed seeing Rosie's baby . . . born just that morning!!!!
Thanks so much, Donna, for such a fun visit!
We sure enjoyed our time together!
What a great write up, and fantastic pictures! I had the time of my life last weekend! It was so incredibly special to spend time with you, and get to see and (re)know your beautiful children. I just can't thank you enough for your hospitality, but even more, for your wonderful love and friendship. Sending much love and big hugs your way!
