Journey's Party!

  Our sweet friends, Coty and Jeffrey Melvin, are adopting a precious boy from Ethiopia!  (Jeffrey is Chris' old room mate who actually married us!)  There was a surprise party for them in Woodstock last weekend so we spent part of our awesome sunny afternoon celebrating with them - the very special day that is coming soon when they bring their son home from Africa!  They will name their son, Journey.  You can go here to see their blog about their adoption adventures.  We are so happy for them and can't wait to meet Journey soon!

Park's friend, Aislynn who was born just a week or two before he was, was also at the party and they were super cute together :)  This reminds me of a "first awkward date" picture.  

 Holding hands :)

 Everyone wore their "adoption" tees we bought to help support the Melvin family!

 Beautiful Kim and baby Aislynn!

 He felt like King of the World on top of this rock!

 Football time!  And just for the record - he will never be allowed to play football.

 Chris and Parker with Jeffrey!

 When we got home - we spent the evening on our back porch playing with Park's new sand and water table he got for Christmas!  It was the first day warm enough to play with it!  He's now obsessed and wants to always be outside playing with it!  :)
