Playtime with the Allans

This afternoon Ben, the girls and I went to bring dinner to the Allans, and stayed to visit for a couple of hours. It was a nice visit - the kids all vanished into the back bedrooms to play dress-up and put together a play that they later performed for us, Ben and Scott played a college football video game, and Heather and I got to sit and talk in relative peace. It seemed a good distraction for their family, and it was a fun time visiting for mine. I certainly wish it were under better circumstances, but I feel very blessed to have the opportunity to spend more time with this great family.
