Have you heard the one about inlaws vs. outlaws? That joke was on my mind a lot last week when Jordan's folks braved the wintry mountain passes and slick roads to visit us. We always enjoy our visits with the Lentz' - and this time was no exception. On their last trip to see us, we were deep in the throes of putting up our roof trusses and getting dried in as quickly as humanly possible. Thankfully last week was decidedly more relaxed.
With the exception of a brief trip or two into town, we mostly sat around relaxing and enjoying each other's company. And we ate. A lot. Over a 5 1/2 day span, we celebrated Thanksgiving and Christmas (twice!) It's all about the food, as you can see!
Later in the week we celebrated Mom, Annabel and Jordan's birthdays.We especially enjoyed the handmade gifts that Jordan's VERY talented Mom made: a dot drawing that Annabel loved, and a study on sheep that brings Jordan straight back to his Alaskan sheep hunt.
So, what's the difference between inlaws and outlaws? The answer is that outlaws are wanted. But in this case, the inlaws are infinitely more wanted!
