Earlier this month, Ava was blessed with the opportunity to see her best friend from her orphanage since they parted ways last February. Ellie was adopted by a family in Oregon, but we are so thanful they have relatives to visit in Texas! Ellie's family drove up from Houston to spend two days, letting the girls get reacquainted and play! They had a blast and were inseparable the entire time! It was so great to see the closeness they still have, even though they have not seen each other or been able to communicate to each other this past year. We are so thankful they got this opportunity, and we plan on keeping their relationship special!
Paul celebrated his birthday, along with Chinese New Year, at P.F. Changs! We got to celebrate with Paul's brother, nephew, and niece. We ate way too much and had a great time!
Many of you are having real weather issues this month, and I have to brag just this once, that it is BEAUTIFUL and WARM and SUNNY this week in Texas. :) I can say that since the weather has been the worst Texas winter in awhile and has not been the weather we had been hoping for up to this point. The kids wore shorts to school today. Don't think they ever could do that in Ohio!
Well, I have to run, but I promised a few that I would do my best to update this blog. I have two birthdays coming up in the next couple weeks, so I should be able to add more soon! We love and miss you all!
