Crop 'til You Drop!

Saturday we had our scrapbooking crop and we had so much fun. It was great to have family and friends come out. We even made some new friends. Troy was a trooper in a room full of women and everyone was so supportive of our adoption. I was able to talk to a lady whose friend had adopted a little girl from Russia a few years back and we talked about the differences between now and then.

We had tons of food and drink and just had a great time in general. I can’t thank Tammy enough, who was mostly (if not completely) responsible for putting the crop together. Below are some photos from the crop.

Looks like you had a good weekend cropping. I would love to see your scrapbooks sometime as I can imagine that they are wonderful. I tried, but I'm just not that crafty!

Glad you are feeling better and getting back to the normal swing of things!!

Looks like you had a good time. I've often thought about scrapbooking, my SiL does it and finds it very relaxing.

This looks like it was a lot of fun! Thanks for your recent comment on our blog. It's always interesting to find out who is reading your blog. I will definitely start following yours.

You mentioned that you recently switched regions. I think that you made a very wise decision. Right now, Vlad is backed up so far. If you received a referral, it would still take a long time to return to your little one. I hope that your new region moves much quicker.

We'll stay in touch! God's Blessings.
