We met the delightful Willis family in Virginia at the Jamestown 400 Treasure Hunt, hosted by Vision Forum in 2007. We have followed each other's blogs since then, and feel like close friends, despite not spending much time together face to face. However, this problem was rectified somewhat with their visit over the weekend. We enjoyed their family very much. Here, Kasie and Angie pose with Joel and Joy after Saturday's performance of Pride and Prejudice (which they attended in costume, being fellow Jane Austen enthusiasts.)
On Sunday, quite a few of our friend came over to welcome back the straying Nail family, whose untimely departure from the neighborhood is still a source of disapprobation and dissappointment to many (They moved to Indianapolis and we all miss them). The girls (and Nathanael) enjoyed a variety of fun games (judging from the volume of laughing).
Walter, Nate and our guys enjoyed their own games, and much later in the evening, the Willis family was intitiated in to the group of honored few non-Texans who can play "42".
Nate and John played an interesting variation of ping-pong on a tiny table.
We also made music with the Willis family, who are extremely talented and versatile. At one point, there was an eclectic jam session involving piano, guitar, violin, tin whistle, 2 drum sets, trombone, tuba, and voice -- truly a unique combination. A great time was had by all, and actually some lovely music was made.
Thanks to the Willis Family for the honor of your visit.
Ya'll come back now, ya' hear!
