Lots of Faces

On Saturday evening, we were at a wedding and Jada started to have a reoccurrence of her stranging issues.  I wondered why and it continued into Sunday.  As I downloaded pictures on Sunday night from our weekend, I think I may have discovered the reason!  We had a weekend full of visitors and a wedding!  It may have been a lot for the girls, but we were so glad for each visitor.

Aunt Kris came on Friday.

We went to the park and the girls used Aunt Kris like a jungle gym.  Adia found her leg particularly appetizing and amused herself for more than 20 minutes by blowing loud bubbles on her leg.

She did a great job of holding still, I am too ticklish for this.

Adia comes up for air…

On Friday night, a wonderful family came over for dinner.

They are starting an orphanage in Southern Ethiopia for Mingi children.  We were so encouraged in their work and our hearts broke for the plight of the mingi children.

Jon and I actually went out for a date!  I was kind of nervous, but we got something to eat while we had 4 very willing babysitters. :)

They are sooooooooo (not enough o's) cute. You do such a wonderful job of blogging. The Lord did a great job when it came to giving you a mother's heart. I marvel at His workmanship.
