We all were so excited to have Daniel come to visit us at our home in Zillah, He flew into Pasco on Tuesday and was able to stay with us until the following Monday, the time went by way to fast. This photo was taken in Ellensburg where we went to watch Claire Schaef at a swim meet. She is eight years old now and while we were there she set 3 records at the meet and won all of her events. The little boy is Spencer Schaef, he is 4 and just what Todd deserves. (Sorry Heather)
Back to Dan, he is leaving for Barcelona Spain for his mission and will be gone for 2 years, he was so excited to be able to serve in the same mission with Kyle. Hopefully they will have the chance to work together. While he was here we played games and he ate, and ate and ate, I forgot how much food these boys can put away. He was also able to spend the day with our Spanish speaking missionary's, they all had a great time and Dan felt it was good for him, he and Rylee had lots of time to catch up on everything and go horseback riding. We were so grateful for the time we had with Daniel, and wish him well while he is on his mission.
