Bonnie and Shane Are Here!!


Is there anyone sweeter than the Bowmans??? Well, Bonnie that is! (Just kidding Shane..you're sweet too!) This awesome couple came up Saturday in time to see Mason play 1 1/2 games of his baseball tournament. What's amazing about their trip is that they drove a diesel Mercedes that Shane converted into using cooking oil as their fuel! (I know, they ARE brilliant too!) So they drove all the way here on oil and did not have to buy gas! They don't buy their oil....they have several restaurants that give them their oil when they change it out. Brilliant!
After the game, we had supper and sat around the campfire outside our house......now, I know you in Alabama can not imagine sitting around a camp fire at night this time a year but it feels great because the temp here at night is around 60 degrees......



Today, we went to church and they got to meet some of church members. We had a full house again today and Mike preached an awesome sermon about how to grow in maturity in Christ. We spent the afternoon riding up to Middle Mt. and showing them around Vallecito. We also took the boys over to the lake swing to let them have a little fun. Tonight we grilled ribs and are sitting around the fire again. We are loving every minute with these precious friends and are trying our best to talk them into relocating here (Shane loves that's there's no bugs here)...hhmmmm.....wonder if I'll get a comment after that.....

I thought this was a cute picture......
Man, we've missed this couple! They are so awesome with our kids and my kids feel so loved by them! If you don't see these guys back for a couple of weeks, you'll know we've kidnapped them!(Just kidding Kaylee....I know you need Grandma and Grandpa back before baby Wesley gets here!)

Okay, first things first...You can't have the Bowman's. Just kidding. I truely feel privileged to have met these people. I have had the opportunity recently to get to know them better and I am so glad of that. Take good care of them and I know they will continue to encourage you guys as they are there for the remainder of their trip. Fortunate for us that baby Wesley is coming!!
