Fantastic Reunion

Allie and Julianna

Miss Priss

My future fire fighter at the Children's Museum.

What a wonderful time we had at our first reunion for our beautiful daughters. It's hard to believe we have been home almost a year and even harder to believe how much the girls have grown and changed. So many happy faces on the girls and their families. These little girls hold a very special place in my heart and I love them all dearly. Thanks again to Georgette for pulling this all together. You rock!!

Who's ready to smile!

Allie and her best buddy Julianna were able to hang out today and play. They gave each other a big hug when they first saw each other.

Delaine and I were all smiles watching our girls play.

Big brother and big sister

Allie's favorite activity READING!

I love this little smirk!

She would let me read to her all day if we could.



Our beautiful baby is such a blessing!

What a wonderful year!

What a sad look in her eyes

Not any more! One year ago I saw our beautiful daughter for the first time. I immediately fell in love with her and each day our bond grows stronger. Thank you God for such a beautiful blessing.

Summer Fun Pics

This is a 4 week old racoon my sister is hand raising...So cute!

My silly girl! She loves hugs!

Fun at Disney

Her favorite part of Disney is splashing in any puddle of water she could find.

She wasn't sure about Mickey and enjoyed him more when he was at a distance.



My little niece was able to go with us and she is having a ball!

I was in heaven playing with the girls.

We had such a wonderful time seeing our friends today. We were able to reunite with our travel buddies Delaine and Georgette and finally get to meet our friend Beth and her absolutely beautiful daughter. She actually travelled to China about a week after we left.

The girls played, laughed, ate and had a great time. It was nice to share stories of our trip and share stories on what the girls had been up to and how they were adjusting. It is so wonderful to have a connection to these families and be able to see them and see the girls.
