What not to do on a Sunday afternoon!

EM was playing with his friends after church today. It was a nice afternoon and they were messing around in the bed of our Priest's truck. Not a good thing to do...but they are boys! Well according to EM he lost his balance and this is the result. A few hours later in the Emergency room and we are home with his arm in a splint. We will see an Orthopedic MD on Friday to hopefully cast it!
It will put a crimp in his swimming and Lake activities...but hopefully in 6 weeks it will be healed and good as new.

ETCHINGS!

When we were in China to adopt JM, I had etchings made of the oldest  three kids. Since the youngest photo I had of EM was at  2 1/2, I had each of them done from photos of the kids at that age. Well, since JM is now past that age I had our friends have one done of JM while they were in CHina!
It is nice to have one of each of the kids!

BLESSED FAMILIES!

 
We have had the blessing of making friends with 2 families that were united with their daughters this month!
Both OLIVIA and SHILOH are now home in the USA with their wonderful families!
So good to have them home!
