July 4th is Ryan's favorite holiday. Mostly because it's warm out and Ryan has a much easier time in the warmer weather. But, also because it means he gets to spend a week with his best friend, Sam. These two boys have such a special bond. They met when Sam was 7 and Ryan was 9. And from the moment they met, they were inseperable. That is until Sam and his family had to move away about 4 years ago. Since they moved, the two keep in contact with phone calls and writing letters. We love having Sam here. He is such a neat kid and is so helpful to me around the house. Jorie also became really close with Sam's younger sister, Lily. They exchange letters as well. We actually drove to pick Sam up this time so we had the chance to visit with his family and Jorie got to see Lily! We spent the entire day with their family and then went to dinner together. Such a fun little family trip! Sam went home last week. But, Ryan and him are already planning for his next visit. Hopefully, it will be this fall so they don't have to wait a whole year before seeing eachother again!
