The Boyds meet us at Allerton

Our best friends, and Alaric's Godparents, are Heather and Justin Boyd. Justin is a Navy Jag Officer currently stationed in Virginia Beach. After 6 months deployed to Iraq and only 6 months back at home, the Boyds recently found out they are now being stationed for the 3-year oversee tour in Rota, Spain. They leave at the end of January. There trip back to Illinois was also goodbye to some for a long time.

Brian and I have already started our Spain fund in the hopes of getting there in a year from now but the time away from our special friends will be tough. The Boyds came down just for the afternoon on the 23rd and we had lunch out at Allerton where Brian was working. Alaric and Olivia ( Heather and Justin's one year old) had so much fun running through the mansion.

Mara, Brian, and Justin
Best Friends Forever. Alaric was smitten with Heather the whole time!
