Robyn gave me a sweet gift this week - she is such a thoughtful friend - she saw this material at the store - it has giraffes all over it - she made it into a cushion for me. I love it - it has a place of honour now on one of our chairs in the front room.
We invited Robyn to dinner a few times this past week - it's lonely for her on her own and she loves getting out of her house every now and then. It was so nice to get together with her and to catch up after being away. We also had the missionaries over this week for dinner - they are both new ones since we left HB last - it was nice to eat with them and get to know them a little. One of them is from Utah and the other from Japan - we have never had a Japanese missionary in our ward before - it would be nice to have them over more often so that we could learn more about life in Japan.
On Friday, I met up with my friend, Denise - it was her birthday on the Thursday, but she wasn't home on that day, so I took her out for an iced chocolate at 'The Coffee Club'. It was great to catch up with her as well and it was fun to turn someone else on to iced chocolates. :-)
Saturday, we had our friends, Thea and Martin, over for dinner - they are friends from church - along with Robyn. We always enjoy having friends for dinner and it was great to spend some time with them and get to know them better. I wish that I had remembered to take a photo of them - next time.
It is nice to be back in our ward again, if only for a few Sundays. Everyone always makes us feel welcome every time we come back home. :-)
