Life at the Hotel Part 2

We are back home from a busy, but absolutely wonderful weekend.
Saturday morning, several of the adoptive families gathered at a local park for a picnic. The kids enjoyed the beautiful weather and running around together.Monkey was reunited with his best friend at the orphanage, "Thing 2". It took them a little while to warm up to each other again, but they sure make a cute pair! Can you imagine the mischief these two got into together when they lived in the same room?????

Saturday evening, about 800 people gathered to celebrate 30 years of the ministry of CSC. My favorite part of the evening was hearing a recently adopted 16 year old young woman speak about how she was now living her dream of having a new family.
It was a wonderful time of connecting with friends old and new, and of celebrating a ministry that has blessed so many.
