capturing the memories...

we are home safe and sound :) and oh buddy, did a hot shower ever feel good!!! my brain is swimming but i sat down and uploaded photos and captions to help me stay awake. everyone in the house is pretty well wiped out from either travel or fun all week while we were gone :)

if you want to see pictures of the kids, click here (double click on 'view album' and then 'play slideshow'). most of the pictures have a short caption....

so glad to be home, but it feels strange to not be around lydia mahilet and abraham samuel. although our relationship is just beginning, it all felt so natural. we have never had an adoption unfold so smoothly, and to say it is awesome is an understatement. i realize the real work is ahead, but seeing how much they have already become family makes me ready to get started for real.

p.s. there are a few good pictures from rwanda posted here if you are interested in seeing more of the country that started our love affair with africa :)
