Well guys. Sorry I haven't posted in a month. We have been super busy! :)
Here are a few things that we have been up to since the last post. George has been away A LOT on travel. A week in Tupelo, Mississippi, another week in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and two trips to DC. Anna came to visit June 1st-12th. During her visit, the five of us drove to Manhattan for the weekend. We had a blast. We took the girls to the M&M store, Toys R US, our favorite Mexican restaurant and much more. On Saturday afternoon, Anna kept the girls while George and I saw Mamma Mia on Broadway. We had 2nd row seats and it was awesome. After the show, we went to our favorite restaurant in Manhattan, Blue Fin. Overall, it was a great trip and not a bad drive from Philadelphia.
Exciting News: We have moved from our 2 bedroom apartment to a beautiful 3 bedroom condo. It has all hardwood floors, 14 foot ceilings, granite counter tops, valet parking and much more. It reminds me of our house in Charleston..except the walls are white. Everyone knows that George and I love bright walls. :) I moved about 75% of everything while George was working..of course, I had the kids helping so it took much longer but was fun!
For Father's Day, I made George a personalized photo album using Snapfish. It took me HOURS to complete. It turned out perfect. It was about 80 pages and included a section on "just us", a section on Chris, Kevin, Anna, LiLi, and Bella. He LOVED it. He didn't have a lot of pictures of Anna when she was younger so I found a lot on his computer starting year 2000. We also gave him a tie with LiLi and Bella's picture on it (which he wore on Father's Day). We went to church on Father's Day morning, after LiLi and I cooked Daddy breakfast, and them went to Estia (a Greek restaurant in Center City) for lunch. We had a great day. We are truly blessed to have such a wonderful husband and father.
We have also done many family things over the last month including the Children's Discovery Museum, Narberth Music Festival, had movie night a couple of nights and lots more. I helped out in LiLi's class during Vacation Bible Camp. It was a lot of fun. Bella had a great time hanging out with the "older kids". She did everything they did..including dancing, singing, and playing games. She followed LiLi everywhere and LiLi loved it. She would tell everyone.."this is my sister" then would take Bella's hand and lead her to the next activity.
On Friday, we are leaving to go to Washington, DC for the 4th of July weekend. LiLi is really looking forward to the fireworks. We are leaving on the 5th for Charleston and will be there until the 10th when we head to Disney World. We will be back in Charleston for the remainder of July after the Disney trip. We are doing Disney One day (lunch at Cinderella's castle) and one day at Sea World. The rest of the time will be spent by the pool. Charleston will be a very busy time with Dr,'s appointments for all 4 of us and visiting with friends and family. We are looking forward to seeing our granddaughter, Ava, as she grows so much each time we visit..such a pretty little girl.
I will post again soon! Blessings to you all!

hello!! I met your sister Rhonda today at our pool here in Charleston and she mentioned that you had adopted your second daughter from Ethiopia. We brought home our daughter from Ethiopia last November-and I think we may have used the same agency! Our daughter just turned 2 last week. Bella is absolutely beautiful and so is Lili!! Congrats to you. Maybe I will run into you at the pool as your sister said you were traveling this way this weekend!
anyway, just wanted to say hello!
