AWAA Reunion at Lake Warren

We have been so blessed with wonderful friends we met in Ethiopia. We are so thankful that 3 families came to visit us and spend a weekend camping!! We had the best time!!!! We can't wait to do it again!!!!

We did a scavenger hunt on golf carts. We had to play leap frog in front of the Frogger
 Jacob accidentally let go of the basketball and it rolled into the lake.
 Sammer was "driving" the golf cart
 our team was trying to catch a fish
 The mamas got a few minutes to sit and chat. I love these ladies!
 more fishing fun

 Jacob and Kaleb liked playing in the text where the big boys got to sleep


 The Buckingham kids making a bracelet
 yummy root beer floats
 the dads got to hang out too (Dustin had to take Dominic to a soccer game)






 Amelia loved Molly, her mom wasn't so sure when she found out that Molly is a pit bull. She is the nicest dog, Katie!
 our little Ethiopians!
 playing in the sand box
 yummy s'mores
 the whole group of Buckinghams, Snyders, Murrays and Mowens








the six reasons we were all together!! Love these little Ethiopians!!!

Isaiah is an Honor Student

Isaiah just finished 5th grade. We have one year of junior high done around here. Isaiah had to work so hard all year, but he did it!!! He finished the year with all A's and B's!!!! He spent MANY nights doing 3+ hours of homework, but it paid off. Not only did he get A's and B's all year but he graduated out of title one reading mid-year and is working at the same level as his peers!!!! He came to America reading at an early 2nd grade level and 15 months later he is reading at the 5th grade level!! We are so proud of you Isaiah!!
