Tricia & Chase Campbell (see their very clever Halloween costume below!) live one street away from us. Chase & I apparently went to the same junior high. It is funny to reminisce over Miss Thompson falling asleep during math class. Tricia is a cousin of my beloved BFF Tara Phelps Huish...so I knew we would be great friends fast. Callin really loves both of them and gets so excited when I tell him we are going to go on a walk to Tricia's house. He says, "T-see" the whole way over.
Up next, the Low's. Clarke and Doug have just about everything in common minus the twin brother thing. As soon as I found out that Anna is a fan of natural childbirth and midwives I knew it was love at first sight! We introduced Anna and Clarke to Settlers and now they can't stop 'making' us playing it! We are keeping very close track of the winners. Results to date: Clarke -2, Doug-2, Annie-1, Chase -2. Seven games in 2 weeks can get REALLY intense! (Don't be fooled, the med boys do work really hard and we don't normally have this much down time. Most games occurred during last weeks 5 day break.)
They are very skilled at constructing tall towers out of roads, settlements, and cities.
And I officially HATE my fuzzy camera...do you hear that Santa Baby!Cal also loves Buddy Grant. We are praying Cal grows up to be just like him.

No way! Clarke and Anna were just in our ward here in Boston! We had Grant in nursery...I thought he was the cutest kid ever! So jealous! :)
That's funny, Chase was a Chemistry major with me....or at least he was in some of my classes at BYU.
Glad to see all is well in Texas!
Wow, what a flattering post. Thanks guys! We are so grateful to have such good friends. (oh, and did you have to put the Settlers score up on the blog?)
and we're secretly hoping that Audrey grows up and marries Callin.
we love you guys.
I hope that all of your "new" friends:) know just how lucky they are to have you! We miss you guys IMMENSLEY and are jealous of those who get to be in your presence! But of course we are soooo happy that you have made such great friends...very very important! Annie, I'm excited for that phone call soon! Lots to talk about!!!!
Love you guys!
Thanks for the sweet post. We know we are blessed to have you as our "family" here in Texas! Callin is such a bright spot in our lives and makes us look forward to having kids of our own if they are even half as happy or good as sweet Callin!
That's so great you guys have made good friends already! We miss you!
That's such a cute idea to show what you are grateful- and good friends is definitely one of the greatest things! That makes me happy that you guys have found such great buddies- especially to play Settlers- that is a blessing!
Some day....you are going to be living by me and we are going to play every other night!!!!
playing Settlers every other night - Annie, your sister sounds awesome!
Have you guys played Ticket-to-Ride? If you like Settler's, you'll like it. Just let us know when you're free and want to play games and we'll introduce you to another game addiction! :)
