Family Visit!!

After nearly 5 years overseas, we had our first family visit! It was amazing and everything we dreamed it would be. It was so wonderful to see Caleb spend time with grandparents. He loved them and warmed up immediately. It was also such a blessing for them to see where we live and what we do. I think they have a new found understanding and appreciation for our life overseas. We can't wait for the next visit! Here are a few pictures from their time with us.



Just before they left, we took a picture from the balcony.



We took them up to a tall "hill" to look out over the valley. Caleb loves to run around here.



It was in full bloom this time as well.



Grandad took Caleb on lots of walks in the stroller.



And they played in the dirt.



And watched the CCA girls from back home.



And rode the tricycle and rode the tricycle and rode the tricycle some more!



Spent lots of time on the balcony/patio.



Filled up the pool dad bought in Siliguri...it was a long process.



But Caleb enjoyed it some much!



And wore the hat Grandad sent.



We took them on a tour of a tea garden. Caleb showed off his Nepali skills.



Grandad preached at our church.



We read lots of books...and he likes to read them at least 10 times.



Spent a good amount of time in the car...riding up front with Grandad...even snoozing some times.



They also got to visit the large Buddhist monastery in town.
