Labor Day Dinner with The Lytell's (John and Candace Lytell)

September 1, 2014

I can't think of a better way to spend the Labor Day holiday than having some church friends make us dinner:) 
John and Candace invited us over for some fellowship/playdate. Their two boys took Aspen under their wings and they played nonstop for the whole visit. The two babies also got to play and have a great time on the floor together. It was funny to see Hazel with the baby toys again. It was as if she was thinking, "Hey, I used to have this toy."
I found out quickly that Luke and John weren't playing around when they planned the meal. I am not sure how many animals had to be slaughtered in order to feed our two families but it was all worth it in the long run. My personal favorite was the macaroni and cheese!





We first met John and Candace when they joined our Life Group at the end of last year. Candace was days away from having her sweet baby girl. Since meeting, Candace and I were able to see many similarities that we both shared. We were both born to teenage moms, we both got married within months of meeting our fiances, we were both pregnant when we got married, we are both breastfeeding advocates AND we both have texture issues when it comes to food! We also found out that we all graduated from Ball State and that John actually was in the same fraternity as the husband of my college roommate. "Its a Small World After All."

John is an insurance agent with American Family Insurance and since meeting them we have switched all of our policies over to them in order to both get a better rate on our insurance and also to help John grow his business.

John and Candace, Luke and I are so happy to have met you guys. We hope that as our children continue to grow we will be able to spend time with one another and rejoice in all the milestones. Thanks for spending the holiday with us and for  your hospitality!
