We were able to meet Caleb and Emily for dinner and a visit in the park one evening. It is so nice to be able to see Caleb. He's quite the talkative little boy. He gave us all sorts of advice on exercise and how to be a better racer/runner. He and Sarah had a lot of fun playing. They went around looking for treasures (feathers, rocks, necklaces). Sarah and Caleb had a secret spy club and U was the evil zombie spy. U's job was to capture their beads of power (and them). Of course, if he succeeded, he was to promptly let them go. They also tested the big feather they found to see if if would give them Dumbo-like powers. What creative kids! We had a nice visit with Emily as well. She just recently started a new job and seems to be doing well. Her parents stopped by at the end so we were able to chat with them briefly as well. We sure are grateful that we are able to see Caleb and Emily.

Caleb and Sarah provided live entertainment. U sang what they wanted him to while Sarah and Caleb danced about. Megan and Matthew occasionally ran through as well. The feather that Caleb is holding and the beads Sarah are wearing are treasures they found at the park.
They requested that the audience come up and perform. I believe this is Emily and me doing the hokey pokey.
Playing follow the leader.
Caleb and Sarah found lots to do together.
Matthew enjoyed playing at the park and tried to keep up with the big kids.

The evil zombie spy catches one of his victims. He used the flip flop phones to contact their headquarters and tell them he was going to eat them.
The spies taking a quick break.
Megan and Matthew liked riding on Caleb's scooter.
So did Sarah and Caleb. (Too bad the photo is blurry. They went a little faster than the younger two.)

All of us.
