Happy 4th and a Trip to the Zoo

Happy 4th!!!! - It poured rain the whole day, so we took an inside shot.
It did clear off enough to go see the fireworks. :)








On Friday we took the kids on their first family outing to a zoo about an hour from our house. They have a new Africa exhibit with lions, zebras, giraffes, and rhinos, which the kids enjoyed.

The whole crew

Corinne & Lydia


Hollie & Isaiah


Kaden & Corinne

Kaden, Josiah, & Hollie

And Isaiah was VERY excited to lose his 2nd tooth.

Sherry,

Hey, how's it going? We sure miss you guys and reading about the Pritchett's in Addis brought back a lot of memories. Sorry I haven't had time to post a comment on your blog, but I've been reading. The boys, Mamush (Levi) and Setotaw (Asher, and I enjoyed the photos of the kids this morning over coffee! Keep posting the updates and we're enjoying seeing how other are adapting to the "new normal". God is so good and he could not have placed to more perfect boys into our family. Blessings on you and your family.

Hey semlow clan!

Just thought I'd pop in to say I hope family camp went really well. I'm sure you guys are still recovering from a week away.

I'm having Semlow family withdrawal. I'm thinking i need to stop in sometime soon if I may :)

Love,
Molly
