Visits from friends - June 2012

Our month of June 2012 was very busy - we traveled a lot this summer and were fortunate to have visits from two sets of friends in June.  Dave and Katie Noland & Jeff and Sara Dubois.  Interestingly, they both got married on the same day, and one day after Dave and Katie left us, Sara and Jeff arrived!

We needed jackets in the middle of June...

We had a great time with Dave and Katie.  They were our first guests in our newest apartment, and they came through after a week in Spain as an anniversary trip.  Dave and Katie were also kind enough to put us up in their apartment in May 2011 when we went to Washington DC to collect our visa to come to Amsterdam.

Sara and Elizabeth have been friends since grade school.  Fortunately for me, she married a great guy so that I have someone to hang out with while Sara and Elizabeth and doing crazy things together.
