Chris Ward comes for a visit!

Chris is one of our dear friend from our church in Geneseo,Il. She was like an adopted mom to Jeff and I for the five years that we were there! It was so special to have her come down and see Ella! She came down for four days and then Ella and I rode back up north with her to visit friends and family.
I really enjoyed the time with her at our house. She is quite the seamstress, and was gracious enough to bring her sewing machine with her and make curtains for me for our family room. She slaved over them and cranked out five lined panels of curtains in two days! They are beautiful! She also brought a BEAUTIFUL quilt and playmat quilt she made for Ella! Thank you so much Chris for sharing your amazing talents and skills with us!
Chris had fun giving Ella a bath!



Just got done feeding her a bottle so mommy could get some rest!




Going shopping with mommy and Chris! Sounds dangerous to me! :o)


Hangin' out on the back porch! The weather was beautiful when she was here! Chris thought it was HOT, but I guess we are just used to it.




Cutting out the curtains!






More fun bath time!!!





Poor thing! She worked SO HARD to get those curtains done!!!




Play and snuggle time!




The beautiful quilt Chris made to match Ella's nursery!



Us being silly!! :o)






Just hangin' out the night before we left for our road trip! Spending time with daddy! He didn't get to go, so he wanted to soak up some time with his baby girl!





Haha! I love this picture! It's Chris with the Whole French Family!


Thank you so much Chris for taking the time and making the sacrifice to come down and see us! It was such a joy to have you! Thank you for all the beautiful gifts you gave Ella and for your generosity to Jeff and I! More importantly....thank you for your friendship! We love you like family!!! So special to have to with us!
