This year Eric and I and our kids hosted our 2 year China reunion at our place. All the families came....us, the Tannebergers, the Shipmans and the Mullendores. Everyone began to arrive around lunch time on Friday, July 18th and stayed until Sunday in the afternoon. We all had a FANTASTIC time with one another. Like Wendy said to me in an email, "When we decided to adopt, I never imagined I would get an extended family too!" Our thoughts exactly!! The weekend was filled with good food, friends, campfires, swimming, tie-dying, horseback riding, fishing and "Boat Rides by Ben"! We were thrilled to find out everyone wants to come to our place next year!! Above are Mara, Lucy and Ava on Allie for a ride.
Jen bought the girls matching shirts. We tried to get a good group shot. It was much easier this year than it was last year when they were 2. They are just the cutest bunch of girls I have ever seen!
Lucy doing her "Rock Star" impersonation!! She is a hoot and so full of life!! We just love all these girls so much!
Here are Ava, Lucy, Mara and Kayla for our photo shoot. It was raining a little, so we just took pictures as long as they would let us.
The weather on Saturday afternoon was great for swimming. So, after nap time, the girls took a dip!
Ava and Kayla swimming in the kiddie pool. This was actually a skinny dipping session, but Kayla decided to put her suit on.
Nicholas, Ben and Josh have become fast friends and enjoy doing a lot of the same things....especially getting dirty and going exploring in the woods!
The girls swang on the tree swing for what seemed like hours. They loved it and as they swang they all sang songs.
Ben and Josh with a frog they caught on Friday evening.
The girls got under the table after eating and made a fort.
Scott, Frank, Wendy and Dawn sitting on the beach as the girls played in the sand and pond.
