First Faces

We have put off sending photos of us to our girls in Haiti because it was something we were just going to "get around to." Well, we are nearing the end of our process so we made little plastic coated books to zip-tie into their cribs. Here are a few of the photos included. We will label them in creole. Mama and Papa are the same words, brothers will be labeled "Fre" pronounced fway. Sisters will be labeled "Se" pronounced say. We hope these first images are imprinted on their hearts and we will be received well.

One very scary little monster....

one very scary terantula!

Our good friend, Nadeen, and her oh-so-adorable daughter Noelanie (Elijah's fiance) came to trick-or-treat with us. Let me tell you...that girl got the loot! No one could say no to such an adorable face!

(OK, so I just figured out I can put more than one picture on a posting....I told you I'm just learning!)

They look a little frightened already huh? It is always so hard to get them to hold still before we go trick-or-treating. My Halloween pictures never do our costumes justice. They can't wait to get out the door and they are so tired and wilted by the time they get home that we take what we get.

Spooooooooky aren't they?

Josiah too was a super scooper!

It didn't take long for him to change his mind!

Elijah thought scooping out the guts of the pumpkin would be pretty disgusting.
