We are getting ready for Christmas around here. Noah and Abbey were making Christmas ornaments in the other picture. Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

On Our Way to the Harvest Bash....

9 years old!

Noah's birthday party was a great time. We got up early and went to "Boo At The Zoo", which has come to be a tradition. All the kids got alot of candy. Then, we headed home for a Cars birthday party....where they continued to fill up on cake and more candy from the pinata. We did have some pizza in between there. Noah had a very fun birthday party and thanks to everyone who made the trip. It's so hard to believe he is 9 years old. Happy Birthday Noah.

Fall Fun!

Columbus Clippers baseball game

Last night we watched the Columbus Clippers take on Indiana. It was alot of fun watching the game. Hannah was really getting into the music.

Happy 4th of July!

Here are some pictures of the kiddos at Jason's parents house a few weeks ago.They had so much fun playing with their cousins. They went to Bible school with them, and were in the pool most of the time. The other pictures are of the 4th of July. We went to a parade, celebrated Uncle Michael's birthday(Julie's sister's husband) and ended the night with fireworks. It was alot of fun!

AHH reunion

This weekend we were in Lexington KY for A Helping Hand's(Our adoption agency) annual reunion picnic. Unfortunately many of the families could not make it from our travel group, but we were very excited when we saw Brianna. She was one of Hannah's friends from China. Her family is from Michigan and they traveled to a northern area of China to get Brianna.(We went very very south to get Hannah) We were on the flight home with Doug,Terrie(her parents) and Brianna.(even stranded at Ohare airport with them!)It was very fun to see them and how their past year had been. Hannah and Brianna had a great time playing together. Noah and Abbey really enjoyed the picnic, too! We stayed with Todd and Korinne, our friends from Lexington, and had such a special time catching up! What a great weekend!

The Missing Tooth......

Fun at Grandpa & Grandpa's

We spent a few days at my dad and mom's house this week. We all had a great time. My grandma was in town from Wisconsin. It was so nice to visit with her. We also got to see aunts, uncles, and cousins that we don't get to see very often. What a special time! We also had another little birthday party for Hannah.
