We have been out of town for Easter,Passover and we also went on a little trip to Tucson to visit the AZ family. Life is great Hasina is doing really well she has gained about a 1 1/2 lbs since being home. She is in the 10% for weight and 50% for height Grandpa is hoping for a basketball player :o) Zack has about 20 days left of school and he is doing so great. He is also very excited about his up coming soccer tournament (he wants a green mo hawk). Aaron is staying home with me till next fall we are having a lot of fun going to the park and playing on the trampoline. Well that is all for now. I am working on getting my thoughts together for a post about Ethiopia. It is taking a bit because it was an amazing wonderful emotional trip that I have not been able to get my feelings around yet. Stay tuned :o) In the meantime here are a few pics to keep you going.
I too haven't posted anything about our trip. It is so hard to put it all into words. Often times there just aren't any words.... I am creating a Snapfish album of our pictures, hope to be done soon.
