We love Mom and Dad!

Mom and Dad Harney came from IL for a quick visit. It was so wonderful to see them. We absolutely love our parents. They are the greatest ever! It's always a blessing to spend time with family. We had an awesome time all together. Mom has a sweet, fun-loving, caring spirit; Dad is just a riot to be with. He's so fun- always knows how to put a smile on your face, and always there to take care of his family no matter what the circumstance. You can tell its important to him. I'm grateful for my husband who takes after his dad in many areas. He is also like his mom in many areas too- I'm so blessed to have the best of my "in-loves" living with me every day! Tim is very close to his family, and that's something I've always been very grateful for. I wanted to marry a man who loves his parents very much, and boy did I ever marry right. God is so good.
We have such a wonderful family. Mom and Dad got to stay with our sister and brother "in love", Sara and Jon. They arrived there Tuesday night. We all got to spend the day together on Wednesday. Yes, Guess what??!?!? Tim's supervisor let him have the day off and Jon got to take the day off work, so we were all together for the whole day. What blessings! We were so thrilled!!! Mom, Dad, Jon, and Sara all came to our place Wednesday morning. We had a blast! Mom and Dad brought us FURNITURE! PRAISE THE LORD! YEAH!! We got a couch and a chair and a bed for our guest room, and a couple boxes of Tim's old things. We are so grateful. Our apartment now feels like home. Dad was a blessing and helped Tim fix a little issue we had in our closet. The family did lots of talking and reminiscing. Mom also brought us some bulletin board items for our classrooms. Hallelujah! (THANK YOU MOM!!!!) How exciting. We made many memories in just 1 1/2 days. We also got to go to church together at our new church. It was so nice! They went home after church and then Tim and I drove to Jon and Sara's thursday morning. We went out for a little bit, then met Jon back at the house for his lunch break. Then we parted ways. Tim took me home and went to work and Mom and Dad started their journey back to IL. We praise God for the time we got to spend together...It's always sad to part. When we spend time with family, we find ourselves loving them more after each time we see them. We hate to leave our family and we hate it when they have to leave us, but we are thankful for that day, that blessed day, we'll be together forever praising Jesus!
Thank you Mom, Dad, Jon and Sara--- We love you!
(Can't wait to see you again Nick, Josh, Di, Braden- we love and miss each of you, too!)
