2012 seems to be the year for family to visit.
In January, Janelle and Grey came for a few days.
Then in February, my cousin, Arlan, and his wife, Katie, and daughter, Haven (2) came down with the Lester workteam.
Arlan, Katie, and Haven rode with me on my route on Sunday. Here they are getting to know Rodrigo, a boy I pick up in el Mezquite.

Haven had fun getting to know the other kids on campus.

Katie's mom came down with the Lester group and she came with Arlan, Katie, and Haven to our house for supper on Monday night.

Just a few days later, my Mom and Dad came down with the Gridley workteam.
It didn't take Dad long to make friends with some of the newer kids, like Leo. :)
Mom enjoyed connecting back up with Ruth and meeting little Santiago.
Monday night, Mom and Dad came for supper. They enjoyed spending some extra time with the girls, including Jaqui.
Whenever Mom and Dad come down to visit the kids are always enthralled by Dad's height.
Here Jaqui found a way to be taller than him. :)
On Tuesday we went to the plaza, Lupita's, and Café Sed.
I realized at various points that I had not taken enough pictures of the week.
Here are a few random pictures...
It was great to have Jon, Ashley, and Graham down again this year.

Luisa was cracking up one night at the little guy below...

Carol also came over for supper on Monday night.

Ron got his billfold vacuum-packed at Productos Cárnicos...I guess that is one way to keep from spending too much money! ;)
Back to family visits...
I don't have anyone coming in March,
but in April I am looking forward to spending some time with these cuties...
Addie and Levi
Of course, along with their parents :)
Addie, Jeremy, Levi, and Rachel
And then in May, K comes to visit!
(minus Addie... :( )
Makes for a busy, but fun spring!
