Easter

Pinkalicious the Musical

My niece Zoe was in her school's production of Pinkalicious a musical.  We had fun attending the performance and Zoe acted and sang beautifully!  Anna and I wore pink of course.  Even had pink cupcakes after the show.

Father/Daughter Dance

Scott escorted his darling Anna to our homeschool group Father/Daughter dance.  They went out to dinner with  dad/daughter friends of ours, then off to the lovely dance.  They really did dance the evening away!  Scott said he had to shed his suit jacket and Anna was exhausted when they arrived home. Scott had written Anna a letter of love and affirmation which he read to her during a quiet moment at the dance. Good times indeed. Anna loved, loved, loved her special wrist corsage!  

Will on Senior Trip

Will's senior trip included Paris, France and Madrid, Spain.  He had a great time.  I on the other hand had separation difficulties because we hardly talked to him the whole trip! Twice in fact. They toured all day and were out late so it was hard to get phone time.   I found comfort in checking in with some of the other moms.  We had an agreement to call each other when any of us got news. The boys, however had no idea when one of them called home....it triggered a mamma phone chain.  Gone 14 whole days.  I know, I know.........this is just the beginning of harder separations ahead.  Don't even want to talk about it. 

Valentine's Day

The boys have never been thrilled about Valentine's Day.  Don't get me wrong,  they won't pass up the sweet treats that come with this day.  Its all the talk about love and such that doesn't sit so well.  Anna, on the other hand.....the more love, hugs and kisses....the better!  Yeah, it starts early for us girls.  Gotta love all the love floating round on this day!

Chinese New Year 2012

We hosted Chinese New Year celebration at our house.  Our friends from Fayetteville and Peachtree City came for a night of fun, food and fellowship!  Always good to spend time with some of our favorite families.  The adoption bond is a beautiful one!  As parents we so treasure these relationships for us and for our children.  As always, the girls have a blast!  Chinese food, crafts and just running around outside together!  Gotta get our couch pictures also! Our girls are growing up so fast!

Wesley's Formal
