Matthew & Miss Anna Grace

Last Wednesday 8/9/06 Matthew and Anna Grace finally saw each other again since Matthew left the "Big House" on 5/16/06 in Siberia. The reunion wasn't as warm and fuzzy as Chesley and I had envisioned (well, me anyway) it worked out well. The Daddys got to meet and us Mommies got to have our long awaited and much deserved cocktails together finally toasting our children being home. M and AG are a very cute pair. The more they see each other the more they will want to see each other. Personally I wish they lived across the street but if we see them 2-3 times per year that is a gift also. We Mommies really held each others hands through our adoptions between trips 1 and 2 and for that we will forever be linked. Makes only sense that M and AG should get married someday and buy their Mommie's adjoining beachfront Condos on Maui.

We are getting the kiddos together this Sunday for pictures, lunch and lots of playing...wish us luck! Here are some pics from The Cheesecake Factory in Woodland Hills. You probably can't tell from these pictures but once we arrived and requested 2 high chairs we were seated in the back of the restaurant furthest away from civilization.
