Our Ten Year Reunion

We had a reunion for our group that traveled to  China ten years ago.  All of these girls were in the same orphanage for over a year together.  The grownups still get a little misty eyed when we are all together and think about the magnitude of that.

It was a super fun reunion but we sure missed the families that couldn't make it this year.  Here is our little family all ready to leave.

And our reunion was at this pretty house

We all brought food and it was so good!

We all ate outside on their deck and loved listening to the girls be just plain old eleven year olds.

They put together this really cool gift for the girls. They were asked to email ten words that described themselves. And they were all put together in this word cloud.
