Nathaniel "Nate" & Sarah, 6
Olga, 4
Esther & Daniel "Danny", 3It has been only a year since the adoption of Abe, Eric, George, Olga, Esther, and Danny but it seems like they've been ours forever. When we decided to go pick all the kids at once we thought it would be crazy, but not as crazy as it actually was! Our first destination was France where we adopted Abe and Eric. We had brought Nate, Andrew, Sarah, & Leah with us to help the kids get used to life with us. We stayed in France for a week. The kids loved EuroDisney and Leah thought that the eiffel tower was just sooo romantic. After that we flew to Russia to get George and Olga who were very happy to see us. But George and Olga clung very tightly to one another. We had a blast in Russia. On the flight to Israel we had some issues. I needed to sit next to Olga & George, but Leah wanted to sit next to me. Also there were 3 seats per row and we had 10 people. That meant someone would have to sit alone. We fixed this by sitting in 2 rows of 3 and 2 rows of two. Sarah & Leah sat behind me, George, and Olga. Daddy sat with Nate, and Eric, Andrew, & Abe all sat together. When we got to Israel we headed straight to the agency to pick up Esther and Danny. We stayed in Israel for two weeks (we were visiting my family) and then we went back home. One the flight we got three rows. Esther, Olga, & Mom
Danny, Nate, & Dad
