As I mentioned, we had to clear out of the house for the weekend and we stayed with Pam, Kyle, and Shay. It was fabulous. I was actually nostalgic of the days of community living.
We played and laughed and it was a great break for us to be out of the house and away from the lists and organizing that seem to run our days. We'll be working on a way to leave this behind at home sometimes too (hmmm...sounds like shabbat?!)
The floors turned out ok, not great, but at least they're protected now from spills etc.
Saturday afternoon there was a picnic in SW Portland for families who have adopted from Guatemala. All of these kids are just so beautiful. We met one couple in particular that we really liked who have a 13 month old named Liliana. Jon and I actually met the dad on a plane ride from Guatemala City to Houston in January. He was kind enough to give up the middle seat and move to the window so we could sit together. Sweetest little girl gave Julian a giant hug as we were leaving.
Woo Hoo, a picnic!
Julian loved being at the center of the crowd...for a little while anyway.
Liliana and Julian.

Julian's first time on the slide. He liked it.
