Celebrating Two Years Together!!

Our adoption group spent last Sunday afternoon celebrating our two year anniversary with a picnic at our nearby National Park. The weather was beautiful and we enjoyed being together. It hard to believe that two years have passed since our first trip to China. As we sat together we talked about how our lives had changed. People may think we are crazy and we are..... crazy about all of these special blessings!! Here's Emanuiel, always the little helper, pulling chairs and blankets to our picnic spot.
Notice how all of the men are seated while the ladies get everything ready!! Seriously, they were busy watching the children.


Good food and good company!!


The little ones took turns pulling, pushing and climbing in and out of the wagons.



Getting ready for a ride.





Do you mind if I sit in your lap???




Taking a water break...............






and acting silly!!!!







I had to grab one of them quick to get a picture. Emanuiel was over loving on the other girls!







Here we are at the end of our picnic about to pack up and go home. Land was with us for a little while and then he went over to a friend's house. Anna Kayla and Greg were busy and couldn't join us and Cooper's family also couldn't be with us. We missed them but we know we all will be together again very soon.
Until next time............................
Lord thank you for giving us a reason to celebrate with these wonderful families.
All the ends of the world
Shall remember and turn to the Lord,
And all the families of the nations
Shall worship before You.
Psalm 22:27
Robin
