Absence Makes the Heart Grow Fonder

Let me preface this blog post by saying that we have an incredible group of friends up here in Seattle. We have been amazingly blessed with great friends since moving here two years ago. But this morning as I was laying in bed solving the world's problems (as I often do on Saturday mornings), I was struck with the thought about how many great friends we have had that are now scattered throughout the country. This has been due to either them moving away from us, or us moving away from them. We are able to stay connected through sporadic visits (we are coming to the 'burg soon Newtons - promise!) or technology like Skype, but it's just not the same as being able to share a meal or watch a football game with these great friends. So, with absolutely no slight to the friends we have here in Seattle, here are some (but not all) of the really great friends we miss a lot!










And don't forget the one and only Jack.
