    Default I was in Russia 9 years ago today!

    Today may be St Pats Day to all of you, but in our family, it is FAMILY DAY. This was the day that we became parents while in Russia. We went to Russia to adopt our boys in March of 1999. WOW! It seems like yesterday, and forever-ago, all at the same time. Each year we try and do something to celelbrate "FAmily Day" with the boys. Today, Spring Break started here, so we are taking everyone ice skating down in wichita later today for our "celebration".
    HAPPY FAMILY DAY TO US!!

    Happy Family Day! What a wonderful celebration and tradition. One of the best things we can do for our children is create good memories.

    1. Keep on writing.
    2. Get some balance in my life.
    3. Lose weight. Hopefully 5# this year. (9.5 pounds right now! Yay, Me!!)
    4. Continue to be looking for how God wants to use me this year.

    Well, we're back home, and I am nursing a strained knee and various bumps and bruises. The boys had a great time, and just to make it even more "painful for the adults" we went to Chuck E Cheese......for 3 HOURS! Whew! Glad to be home!
