We were SO excited when our friends, the Gilkesons, got to come visit for the weekend! Fred and and Kenny worked together at Landmark for 11 years, and he and his sweet wife, Sheila, were two of the first people we met when we moved there several years ago. We became fast friends, and for most of the years we were there, we not only knew them closely through Landmark, but also went to church with them, as well...so many great expieriences and memories together!!
Fred has been a highly successful wrestling coach for Landmark for years, and since Kenny was starting up wrestling at GCA, who better to come and kick our guys off here than, Coach G?! The guys here figured out real quick the many similarities between these two! It was a great start for the program here, and we had a lot of precious time together just hanging out once the work was done!

Sheila is an incredibly talented artist and art teacher, so, naturally, we wanted to take her down to the galleries in Leipers Fork, just down the road. You see where the two men ended up by the third gallery? (take note: there are peanuts sitting there by the fireplace...took theese two about 2 seconds to find them and plant themselves!)
Had to take them to check out Sweet Cece's!
I'm not sure Zech let go of Fred's hand the whole time they were here! (:

Nothing like old friends...so thankful we got to have some time catching up in person!!!
Love you, Fred and Sheila!
