11 Friends....10 Years, It's Amazing What Can Happen

We just celebrated our 10-year college reunion from Westmont. While not all of our friends could make it, between the 11 of us it seems an EXPLOSION of children has happened. Tallinn and Addie had lots of fun getting to know all these second generation friends and we loved watching them interact. We all connected in the lobby of the dorm where our friendships originated over 14 years ago.

I am so thankful for these friends and for the blessing of Westmont. What a treat to have remained friends for so long and to see our children now forming friendships.

Here are some fun pictures of the activities.



Tal liked playing with Elizabeth and helping her around campus.


Here is Tallinn praying for our fabulous breakfast prepared by Sarah. She lavished us with quite the spread and welcomed us and the Smith's into her beautiful home. We had a great time!



The girls (minus Christine, Leah & Sandra)





The kids: Gracie, Fiona, Wil, Samuel, Reece, Addie, Tallinn, Vera, Brady, Owen, Elizabeth, Jackson, Ella





This is the good life!

Here is a new picture of our sweet little boy! He turns 6 months on Monday and we are anxious to bring him home. We are really praying that we will have him before the new year, but trust that God will bring him in his perfect time.

In the meantime, we're enjoying this two squirly kids and all the fun things they are up to and saying.

Thursday, they returned to swimming after being off a few months and Tallinn had heard that their teacher broke her hip. She was in the pool when we got there and he was so excited. In the car on the way home he said "Mom, Ginny came back to life. Yeah, Ginny." I couldn't hold back the laughter.

This is the good life.
