The Hagens are Here!!!

One of the most difficult things our family has ever had to do was to say goodbye to the Hagen family last April when we left Legazpi to move to Bacolod. Steve, Jen, Mikayla, Zach and Ben have become some of our closest friends and we were thrilled when plans worked out for them to spend the week of Thanksgiving with us in our new home. The Hagen crew arrived in Bacolod Monday afternoon, and, with the exception of the arrival of grandparents, I have never seen Carly and Caleb more excited and anxious for a plane to get on the ground!!

Carly and Mikayla show off their finished product!

Since this was the Hagens' first time in Bacolod, we HAD to introduce them to Bacolod Chicken!!

After lunch, we all went bowling. We all made quite the fashion statement with our bowling shoes!!

A few more bowling pics....

Smile Ben!

I think this was some sort of victory dance??!!

When all was said and done, Mom and Caleb tied for first place with a score of 117! Woohoo. (Yes, it was a bumper lane.)
