Reunion Recap 2010!!!

We had our first reunion for our China travel group this weekend and it went great! It was wonderful seeing all the girls again. They are all doing so good.
We started out the reunion with a pizza party Thursday night. We had six of the families there the first night. It was crazy but fun.





The next day we celebrated Sarah's 2nd birthday!!! Everyone got to make their own stuffed animal!




After the party we went to the aquarium! Jaden got to see a few fish and she finally passed out!





Afterwards we went to eat at Johnny Rockets! We also attempted a small photo shoot and Jaden got her first kiss from a boy. Crazy Grant!





The next day was going to be the hottest day on record here in Ohio and we had planned on going to the zoo. We scratched those plans and 6 families went to the Children's museum instead. I am glad it was so hot because the kids had a great time indoors!!! A big plus here was that wehad the Z girls and they loved pushing the babies.














Finally we ended the trip with a Chinese dinner!!! There was noodles and rice flying everywhere!







Of course we had to end the trip with a pic of all the girls. They didn't have a couch so the curb had to do!


Jaden and I ended our trip with a visit from little Julianna, she had to show us her mad sumo wrestling skills!


And then Jaden was out for the count.

The only bad part about the trip was the hotel. I have decided that is where all the rednecks in Ohio go for vacation. The worst thing was the bathroom from hell. There was enough killer mold in there to knock you out. I thought the stuff was gonna smother me in my sleep! Lucky you I took pictures!


Now we are back in the real world and all sick as dogs! Jaden has a fever and has been puking from both ends if ya catch my drift. I now have a sinus infection, I am sure it had nothing to do with the stachybotrys experiment at the hotel. And on top of all that our dog had to have emergency surgery today, of course after hours! Gonna have to take out a 2nd mortgage for this bill!
But it was all worth it to see our China family again!!!

What awesome photos! Thanks for a wonderful weekend, Georgette. I know you put in a lot of time and effort (not to mention a few bucks!) for this, and we really appreciate it. Sorry to hear you're all sick. Hope everyone (including the dog) is better soon.
