Mae and Chloe Meet!!

Mae and Chloe spent the first 13 months of their lives together in the MaoNan orphanage in Maoming City, China. They now live a few minutes apart in the Charlotte, NC area. There is only a six week age difference.

They hit it off right away!

Muddy Mae

Good thing she is washable!!

Mae had a good time playing in the mud!

Bubble Playdate

We hosted a bubble play date at our favorite local park. It was a lot of fun!!

Good friends, beautiful day and bubbles...what more could we ask for?

Welcome Freeway Bones

Mark rescued this kitten from I-85. It was very scared and thin.

He's been fed and bathed. Now what?

Ugh.....I think we have a new family member :-)

Mae's first time fishing.

Latta Plantation had a free family fishing night. We met some friends there and had a great time!

Mae, Noah, Addy, McArthur, Cassidy, Alex had fun fishing from the shore.
