freedom........

We are officially on summer vacation in these parts. Wednesday was our last day. It's so weird to come home from our various morning activities and not have to wrestle the children into submission at the kitchen table. A very welcome break indeed.
Our big news for the week is that we recieved our placement information about our Russian orphan! His name is Maxim and he's 6 years old. He has blonde hair, blue eyes, and chubby little cheeks. He's pretty darned cute if I do say so myself. He and his friends will be here on July 16th. We're pretty excited to meet him.

Mother's Day was a lovely affair in our house. After church we headed out on a little adventure. It was a beautiful day, so we took our kites to the park, and did a little exploring. After our adventure we had a nice "dinner" of pie and ice cream at Bob Evans. Being a grown up rocks.

The weather has been a little icky this week, so we haven't been able to spend much time out in the yard. We've had a little bit of flooding in the low parts of our yard. Nothing to write home about, but enough to make some of our plants unhappy.
