Treasure Fest 2010

The OHR gang traveled recently up to New York for 2 family reunions. The first was the Smith reunion, and then on Sunday was the Christy family reunion, held at Midway Park on Chautauqua Lake.

It was a beautiful day to get together with Shirley's family of treasures....her Mom and 6 of her siblings and families.
















The kids enjoyed the rides.



















Stella used her muscles.
















Everyone had a great time!

R.I.P. Holiday Road

We sold the Holiday Road a few weeks ago. The motorhome, that is. It was very sad to see it driving away with someone else behind the wheel. We made a lot of great memories over the 3 1/2 years we owned it, many of them documented on this blog. But our adoption has taken up our time, thoughts and money in 2010, and it was time to move on.

I know I haven't updated this blog in a while. Have been updating our adoption blog throughout the year at ourfifthgirl.blogspot.com, and this one has slipped. But I will try to keep sharing our life adventures from time to time here, even if only for my own benefit of putting memories down in print. If any of you happen to stumble over here now and then I'd like to have something to share. Even though the motorhome is gone, we are still traveling down Our Holiday Road. Life moves forward. Today was the first day of school for Emma, Gwen and Isabel. Life is good! And, maybe next year we will be purchasing another RV to start traveling the highways again with all 5 girls!

Thanks for reading...and stay tuned!
