Cake in honor of Jake!!!
The traditional handing over of the missionary badge.
Little did we know that night...that Josh Hermann (seated front left) would soon be our son-in-law.
I'm so glad that our friends and family don't mind being "cramped" when they come to visit our home. It's small and was never the house of our dreams but it made a lot of dreams come true.
True friends from Jake's youth who drove several hours to welcome him home. They all had to drive home in a snow storm. That's friendship. 
Jake's missionary buddies he served with in Germany. It was so awesome that they came to welcome him home from his mission.
BALDERDASH...the game that changed our lives.
