Return of Lil' Mac and Farewell to Sam

We had a great weekend!!  My bother, Kumen, his wife, Holly, and their son, (Little) Mac, came to visit!  Holly and I went to the Nutcracker market on Friday, and then we all hung out and had fun on Saturday -- the girls got pedicures and went to the mall and the boys watched football.  We ate out and played at the park and enjoyed the company of family we don't get to see often enough.  Then on Sunday Stephen's nephew, Sam, had his mission farewell.  Sam is headed to serve in the Omaha, Nebraska mission.   The younger cousins , including all four of our kids, sang a special musical number with Sam.  It was really nice.  We already miss Lil' Mac (and his parents)!  And we will miss Sam, but we know he will be on the Lord's errand!
