Prayers for Teresa B

Tomorrow morning  a little girl Teresa also adopted from China, will got in for a very risky surgery.  She received her new heart just over a week ago and is now rejecting it.  Her only option left is a Berlin heart and with her pulmonary pressures so high  and fluid on her lungs this procedure could mean life or death.  Please join me in prayer tomorrow morning for this beautiful little princess.

Beach trip

What a beautiful day today at the beach.  We enjoyed lunch at Mo's eating some clam chowder and then to the beach to play.  The kids dug up lots of Clams and ate them later for dinner.
















Visiting with Grandpa Ed

Recently my Grandpa Ed was placed in a Memory care facility nearby.  We all stopped to visit him on our way to the beach today and got some pictures.  We also took him to get a milkshake at Dairy Queen.

Zoe's 6th Birthday Party

This Saturday Zoe had her 6th Birthday Party.  We decided to have it the weekend before her Birthday since more people could make it.  Aunt Connie, Danny and Cousin Brianna came in the night before and surprised Zoe.  She loves Brianna and was so excited that she was here.  The theme was Barbie.  Steve made Zoe a life sized Barbie box that will later be used to put her princess dresses and shoes in.  Steve also made the Awesome Barbie cake with help from Conor who put the pearls on.  A friend and I made some high heel cupcakes and nail polish marshmallows.  We rented a Princess bounce house and it fit just perfect in our backyard.  The kids also threw around some water balloons since the weather was so warm.  Cousin Landon got to come and loved bouncing around and throwing water balloons!
