This is our third (can you believe it!?) Labor Day in Chicago! G & I especially love this holiday because it comes around after our first week of classes. So before the second week begins, we already have a day off & it is great!
This year we had the pleasure of having long time friends Julia & Elimar with us in our sweet home! They have seen us both grow up, me from infancy, so we were excited to invite them into
our home for the first time & spend some with them! They stopped by Chicago on their road trip to their new home in California and wanted to see our city. It was really fun giving them our "on foot" tour & being able to show them the place we've grown to love & call our home. The weather was perfect & the clouds were glorious; it was a great morning with them! The night before is when they actually arrived & we took them to famous, Giordano's for delicious Chicago style pizza which they loved! I didn't take any photos from that night, but it was really special because we met up with other old friends from church who were in town for the weekend too! G & I have so many good & godly role models in our life, it is truly a blessing.
Elimar & Julia definitely inspire us to keep going where God leads, no matter where He leads us or at what time in our lives He calls! We love you Julia & Elimar! God Bless you on this new chapter of your lives! & please stop by, anytime!
Here are some photos from our time together!
