Fun in the sun

"This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it." Psalm 118:24 ESV

Since yesterday and the day before I was inundated with phone calls, emails and paper chasing, other than squeezing in a couple games of Bingo I really didn't get to spend much time with the boys. So yesterday afternoon when things died down, we decided to head to Fulton to the park. We took a small cooler with sandwiches and some drinks, and stayed for about 4 hours. They had a BLAST! Here are a few of the pictures we took.

Nathan, Daniel (who might as well be our child, since he stays almost every weekend during school and 5-6 days a week during the summer with us,) and Alex perched above the ropes course

When it was time for Greg to get up, we headed back home to pick him up, then splurged and took the boys to Centerville Fish and Steak. We will be eating sandwiches and cereal until the next payday to make up for it, lol, but it was a welcome treat!
Today I was able to speak with Moya, a social worker who actually visited Annabella's orphanage in March. She told me that she had so hoped to be able to talk with our daughter's adoptive family as our baby had really made a big impression on them during their visit. Tomorrow she will be sending me a file filled with pictures she took of Annabella on her trip, so stay tuned and I will share those with you along with the story she told us about our little "spitfire!"
