We started off our adventures with six amazing trips to Russia adopting three children from various regions. We settled into our active life in South Florida experiencing a lot of "firsts" with each of them. In 2011, we embarked on a new adventure as a family moving around the world to Shanghai, China! We lived there for three years and in 2014, we repatriated to New England. After three long winters, in 2018, we returned to South Florida where our adventures continue...

December ... So much to celebrate!
There is so much preparation for Christmas and now I have such an appreciation for what my parents did to prepare. This year we decided to travel for the holiday and spend our Christmas in Maui, Hawaii. Traveling for the holiday seemed like a great idea, until I realized I had to leave my Bella behind…
We are busy making teachers gifts:
DIY Lavender Bath Salts with custom label (made my Ayden/Mom)
Christmas “Crack”
Bella monitoring bus pick up and waiting on a friend…
Benny is Bella’s best friend… and he comes to play most mornings.
He even tolerates her “humping” his head… perhaps a little gender confusion. Seems as though she may have missed the lesson on anatomy.
Later in the day, we head down to walk Jordan home from the bus.
But the best way to spend the afternoon is snuggling in and reading…
Rough life…
