Bill and Fran came to town today! When you work Florida, California, and everything in between we were all feeling #blessed to have them.
We had a dinner with just the Johnny Harker cousins. As I was making myself uno grande burrito I suddenly missed my Grandpa Harker so much. He would have loved the party and to see how huge his family has become- his four kids, and 16 grandkids, and 10 soon to be 11 great-grandkids. I almost cried for him to miss out on all of it.
Bill and Fran were married last December in Florida but none of us could make it out for it. Rachel and Beau just had Matthew, Jordann just has Margo, and the rest of us were in the middle of school. So tonight’s dinner was a tribute and celebration for them. So in true wedding dinner fashion I rewrote Chainsmokers Closer for them (today, while I was at work)
Hey, it’s been ‘bout a year since the big day
Home’s in the Keys
And that’s an issue, but you’re okay.
Hey, tell your friends
We’ve been praying for them
Life changes with a hurricane
And Bill has Fran’s heart
Nautical adventures, yeah they’ll go far
It’s been years, and no falls
This camera man sets a way high bar
And Bill-ll-ll won’t stop
No Bill-ll-ll won’t stop
So Bill is a sailor
Likes his ice cream island flavored
Gets his shots right with his drone
He’s a captain and avid reader
Geeks out at the science center
Could have been a history major
Scored with the love notes that he wrote her
They will sail the world all over
They will sail the world all over
They will sail the world all over
Fran, looks as good as the day you met her
Sail the world around with her? Sounds insane
Love and social justice is their main jam
Help’n people out when they can, okay
And Bill has Fran’s heart
Nautical adventures, yeah they’ll go far
It’s been years, and no falls
This camera man sets a way high bar
And Bill-ll-ll won’t stop
No Bill-ll-ll won’t stop
So Fran, she’s a sailor
Island DJ turned producer
Do we like her? We adore her
Loves her Jesus and new cultures
At her work she’s the bossss lady
Heath and fitness are her goals
Does she run on caffeeene? Maybe!
They will sail the world all over
They will sail the world all over
They will sail the world all over
