Exciting Visitors

We had a surprise visit from our extended "family." Our best friends in Holland were Mark and Kira Davis. Their lovely daughter Kate grew up to marry Austin's mission companion, Sam Henderson. Sam and Austin were in the same MTC group and served together in Serbia. Small world! Sam and Kira came to Southern California to show their Serbian friends Disneyland and the Beach. We are so glad they could stay with us during their all-to-brief visit.Kate standing next to the Dutch "wastafel" that Mark and Kira gave to us in Holland in 1987. Robyn and I had our eye on this cute wastafel in a little second-hand antique shop. Kira and Mark bought it for us and surprised us! Such a wonderful gesture from a great couple.

Predrag is an insurance company manager; he was gracious enough to compliment Robyn on her fresh tomatoes--Austin tells us that Serbians grow great tomatoes.
