We bought a Gingerbread house for Julia and Celia to decorate and a train for Paul and Noah to decorate. Most of the time Julia and the boys were decorating and Celia was eating, the candy of course. The kids did really good on the decorations and most of all they had a lot of fun!!

Hello from Greg and Dana. We started our journey to Celia on July 12, 2005. After many years of hoping to have a child biologically we have found that God is leading us on a different journey. A journey of adoption, just as God has adopted us. We are thrilled to have this opportunity to parent a child. We hope you enjoy going along with us on this journey.
