Gone to Carolina, a blessed people...

Our favorite part of visiting the Carolinas 

was the people we met. 

(Pechacek Family) 

(Bills Family) 

The same people that have won a piece of Zac's heart 

(Johnny)

(President and Sister Alexander)

(Knoop Family)

(Smith Family)

(Jessup Family)

(Shepherd Family)

They were kind and clever, 

(Kelley)

(Brother Smith)

full of faith and optimism,

(Rachel and Hoss)

(Brother Roper)

(Castaldo Family)

the salt of the earth. 

(Ruppe Family and Naoko)

Zac didn't have phone numbers, addresses, or facebook messenger

(Sanders Family)

for some people

(Netherland Family)

(Reynders Family)

so I wondered how they'd react when we knocked on their door 

(Canty Family)

and said "surprise!"

(Brother Simmers)

They couldn't have been more welcoming!!

(Sister Foy)

(Love Sister Foy's photo bombing horse ;)

(Dave the mailman)

Thank you dear friends for being so good to our Zac.

"...no more strangers and foreigners but

fellow citizens with the saints

and of the household of God."

-Ephesians 2:19

We missed getting pictures with the
Christensens, Watsons, Chalmers, Butchers,
Janet, Tim, Brian, and Sister Porter
but we love them too!
