We met up with friends Janet, Darryl, and Abby Kooy in Williamsburg, Virginia. The Kooys drove down from Illinois. They were in our travel group to China and adopted Abby from the same orphanage as Ellie.
Abby and Ellie enjoy playing together in Williamsburg. What a blessing these girls are in our lives!

Mom and dad are so very proud of their little graduate!
We stopped for a weekend in Asheboro, North Carolina to visit with friends.

Sunday, March 9, 2008, was child dedication at our church, Valley Bible Church in Stephens City, Virginia. We with two other couples dedicated our children to the Lord. Pastor Calvin Lowder dedicated the children and parents.
More photos from Christmas 2007. On New Year's Eve, 2007, our neighbor Rita Lowder played the piano while Ellie beat her Williamsburg drum that Santa left. Together they made beautiful music.
Ellie had a wonderful Christmas 2007! Santa was good to her this year and left just a few toys. Her green pajamas say, "I've been good all year."
