Our dear friends the Robertson family recently returned home from a wee vacation in Florida. A dinner date together was well over due, so we met them at their house for a lovely bbq two evenings ago. Ryan and Erin are two of Matt and I’s closest friends. It was great to spend some quality time with them (as usual)!
However, this blog is more about the friendship shared between Stella and their 2 1/2 year old daughter Avery. These girls knew they were going to be seeing each other in the evening, so all day they anticipated the reunion. In fact, Ryan said that when he returned home from work and it was not Stella at the door, she cried. Poor Ryan 😦
Here are some pictures of them playing around the house giggling endlessly.
PLAYING TAG
HIDING UNDER THE TABLE
MATCHING CHAIRS: it’s amazing how such little things can amuse these girls. They thought it was funny that they were in matching chairs… at least that’s my best guess as to why they were being silly in these pics.
INTRODUCING CALLUM: Callum is the Robertson’s little boy (almost 6 months old) and he is too cute for words. Stella was practicing the concept of being gentle while stroking Callum’s sweet face.
I”m so thankful that we and the Robertson’s have children around the same age that can play together. We were there until a little after 9… but Avery kept Stella in a good mood. Praise God for friendship, good food, and laughter.
