Happy Birthday Caleb!

On Saturday, our British friends notified us there was a family living in our building who were interested in having the girls participate in a fashion show.  After being introduced via social media, they invited us to dinner last night to begin a friendship.  As it happened to be Caleb's birthday, we asked if it would be okay to spend time with strangers on his special day.

They picked us up at 5:30 in the evening and whisked us away to a nice hotel and a third floor restaurant.  Much to Caleb's delight, we would be having hot pot for dinner!  What this means is that you have an individual pot of soup over an open flame which you then use to slow cook meat and vegetables and then consume them over the course of a couple of hours.

It is such a pleasure to watch Father shape our children to where they are willing to be content with an unexpected, chaotic, and lively evening about town with people they've never met!
