One year reunion

It's hard to believe it's been a year since we returned home from China. To mark the occassion we gathered in Tennessee with several of the other families to have a reunion. 7 families made it and there were 26 of us total. We rented an8 bedroom cabin and spent 3 days in the mountains.

We tried to get a group shot but we had exactly 2 seconds before the tears began to flow and they began bolting from the couch. Pictured above are: Christa, Rebekah, Mia, Juliana, Mia C, Grace, Tenley



One of our outings for the reunion was to an exotic petting zoo. The kids had fun holding and feeding the goats and animals. There were deer, camels, zebras, Zonkies, and peacocks .
We had a great time and even spent a few extra days in Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. David and Zane rode the "Wild Wooly" It was a 3 story go cart track with Go-carts that go 40 mph. We also played a little Hillbilly Golf and went to the Ripley's Aquarium in Gatlinburg. We even saw a shark fight in one of the tanks. It was the highlight of the aquarium for the kids.
