our little celebration

i saw these bottles at walmart a couple weeks ago and knew it would be PERFECT for enjoying with rebekah, joshua and bailey at some point. to remember the MANY fanta's we drank from glass bottles in africa together.
i'm SO glad i got them! while the little boys rested this afternoon, we sat and drank them and watched the video of us arriving home a year ago.

{we had to move from the front porch to the back porch because a wasp decided HE wanted the orange soda! yes. there was definitely some drama/screaming}



it was a perfect way to remember and celebrate what has happened.

and we washed them and wrote the year on the bottom of our bottles. maybe we will do this every year? {and maybe we won't. we'll see!}

Oh how absolutely precious this is Courtney. How very special for the 4 of you....to remember together those moments. I would love to have been a fly on the wall to hear their comments and see their faces....and of course, YOURS too. It was YOU all who experienced that......together...each and every moment. I know that filled your heart completely. AND for me....it touched my heart...with tears streaming down my face. WHAT a great idea. Thankful for you all this day...all 8 of you.
