We were so excited that Kelly and Sara Davidson were in Singapore and able to stay the night with us! We were honored to have them here with us since we think the world of this couple. Theirs is one of the marriages on our list of "inspirational marriages," so we love to spend time with them. Justin and I met on a mission trip to SE Asia with Kelly and Sara in 2000 (which included Singapore!), and Kelly was the one who married us. We've got a lot of memories with these two! We met for dinner on Friday night with Camille, Blake, and Pierce at Villa Bali (where this photo was taken).
Saturday morning Kelly went into full "grandpa" mode! His grandkids are just about the same ages as our two, and our kids miss their grandparents a lot, so it was fun for all. Caleb was really sad to see Kelly and Sara leave. He kept asking why they had to live in Texas. :-( Kelly said it was weird for them to be overseas staying with us after we'd traveled in Asia with them, especially since they are the ones who were missionaries in Thailand for almost 20 years!
Here they are trying to see who can spin the football the most times!

Thanks, Kelly and Sara, for staying with us; we love your family so much! It was so fun to catch up with you; we've learned so much from the two of you over the years. Our guest room is always open (that goes for any of our friends who find themselves in Singapore!!)

That is so AWESOME!!!! I smiled so big when I saw this post on your blog. I had no idea you would get to meet up with Kelly and Sara! So, so happy for this wonderful time and great memories, Jenn. :-)
I have been meaning to tell you this, but over a month ago I did some research on flights to Singapore (with a stop in Texas to drop off Sam with the grandparents first)... and was sad that the trip is way out of our budget. But I wanted to let you know that I was thinking about it. Who knows, maybe it will work out somehow, someway, sometime!
Love you so much!!
