Over the Labor Day weekend we traveled to Chesapeake, VA to visit our friends the Klings. We met them in Japan. They have four girls including a set of twins. Their youngest, Stephanie, is Reagan's buddy from Japan. It had been 2 1/2 years since we said goodbye to them at the Shin station in Japan. They picked right back up where they left off and had a great time playing over the weekend. They've been pen pals since we left Japan. I've enjoyed keeping in touch with my friend Kelly as well. Facebook makes the miles seem like nothing at all!!! Kelly's husband, Gary, is working in Tampa, FL now so he wasn't able to be there. We were able to say hello via Skype though! The drive is only 2 hours and 40 minutes so TOTALLY doable!! We're happy to be closer to them.

The black iguanas......my friend Kelly's college friend, Curtis invented these margaritas that go in a pouch, much like a Capri sun....talk about genius!! In Japan we had them cuz he would send them to Kelly there. As a surprise I contacted him to get some to take there. He said he "owed" her some anyways and sent me a case of rita's and some t shirts and other fun things!! She was totally surprised!! Yippee! Thanks Curtis!!
