Shawn, Amber & Savannah are here!!!!

Yes, they are here!!!

Yesterday night we had a great snow storm and we even thought that the church will be close and we will just stay in the house for the rest of the day, but no... Andrew's choir practice for 8:45am was still on the schedule and hit the road slow to be on time there.

At church we were talking with Mom and Dad and wondering if Amber and shawn will be on the road with this kind of weather. Thankfully, in Battle Creek the weather was better and since we didn't hear back from them to tell us that they are changing the plans for coming, we were waiting for them wholeheartedly!

And they arrived at 6pm and after many hugs and kisses we had a great dinner together with sarmale and chicken with rice casserole!!!Yummy!!!! And a variety of cookies!

We spent the evening chating, singing and playing with Savannah and after we came home for the night we went back this morning for a griddle-cooked yummy breakfast prepared by our Shawn!!! It was so goooood!!!!

Shawn brought their Wii game so we had some fun with it playing bowling and tennis.

Now we are home for Katherine's nap and we'll be on the road again to have dinner-Chicken Divan- at Jenny's apartment and finishing the night with some caroling with some of our ABF class families. We can't wait!!

Snow...snow... a lot of snow!!!

Well, here in Michigan the last few day were cold and we bearly got out of the house... why? because of the 1 feet snow or more...that we have already and is still coming down!!!

Andrew has been pretty much the only one going outside cleaning the driveway. I never saw so much snow! walls of snow on both sides of our driveway! And as we were talking with my parents in Romania, they do not have snow at all (usually December is white!) and the weather is warmar than usually and even the flowers are blooming!!!!

So,here are some pictures of our winter wonderland...

I am not a very good writter so I will try to do my best to keep this going!




Last weekend we had some friends from Romania visiting with us! We were waiting for them with a very good Pizza to arrive Friday evening and they did!!! We had Dad, Briana and Heather with us that evening and they were happy to make new friends from Romania! We enjoied having them and getting to do some fun stuff together. Saturday afternoon we went to Blandford Nature Center with our friends and enjoied some caroling, the Black Smith's shop, the Log Cabin and the snow!








The Log cabin was something very special! There was settled like somebody was living in it so, there was a family keeping the fire going in the stove and baking cookies!! Those were the best cookies I had in a long time!!!!









After that we went and spent some time with few couples from our church for some food and games! We enjoied that day very much!

Sunday we went to church and we enjoied a very good dinner together with our friend Becky.

Katherine loved to play with Adelina and Alexia and they loved coloring together and splashing in the bathtub! Katherine was sad when her Balerina(this is how she was calling Adelina) and Alexia had to leave! :( But we'll see them again in January!!!

Adelina is showing her muscles!!!

Three peas in a ... bathtub!!!
