Fun With Friends!

Maria Jade and Arabella take turns pushing Elmo in the stroller.

Mason showing us his new toy.

Bella even let Maria Jade hold her favorite stuffed animal, Mr. Penguin.

Long time, no blog.........Lots of good things have happened over the last 2 months since I posted, so I will attempt to share a few pics and fill you in a little. We have been doing great, we just stay busy. In February, our friends (Valerie and Ray with their children Maria Jade and Mason) came to visit from Berea. We first met them last spring when we were both waiting to bring our daughters home from Guatemala. Valerie flew with Bob and I to Guatemala last April on our visit trip to meet Arabella. We had a great time bonding with our girls and getting to know each other as well.

We don't get to see each other as often as we might like, but we will always be friends. Going through the adoption process at the same time has a way of bonding you together. The support I got from Val helped me stay sane; she knew exactly how I felt because she was going through the same thing at the same time.

The kids had fun playing together while Val and I had some time to talk and catch up.
