Matt and I went to stay with his parents over the 4th of July weekend (i know, i know I'm behind on my blogging...better late than never, right?). It was such a joy to be able to spend time with Matt's parents and getting to know them better. They have a real heart for the Lord and they're some of the nicest people you'll ever meet!! I appreciated their hospitality and generosity. I felt like I was at home! We enjoyed taking walks, having picnic lunches, looking at the stars/planets through Matt's telescope, and playing games (Bocce ball and Password). It was pleasure to see where Matt went to school and his mom is a 3rd grade teacher. We took a tour of the FFA building and there were MANY banners listing the competitions Matt won through FFA. Seriously folks, I could not count on my hands how many competitions he won State and Nationally!!! He rocked the house!! It was also fun to see the land Matt's parents own and their farm. I appreciated his dad's love for farming and his country.
Overall, it was a GREAT trip and I hope to visit again soon. BTW, just remember there is a re-match of Bocce ball to be had Frank and Patty!!! You can only have beginners luck for so long (ha ha ha) Thanks again for a great visit!!
