They got here, as Norm posted, on Tuesday afternoon. While we had just seen them Saturday, that didn't seem to lessen the enthusiasm. Most of the time was spent just hanging out which seemed okay with everyone, but we did manage to do a walking tour of downtown Knoxville and Old City. We would be remiss if we didn't stop by Magpies Cakes. The first night I taught the girls all how to make their own sushi which was fun. Sivana (ten) is growing into a young lady with insights that are amazing, Gaveriel (eight) is just full of life,sweet and helpful. Trinity (four, turning five in Nov.) is just hillarious. It's so hard to believe how much they have grown and matured in such a short time.
Since we weren't together for any of the girls' birthdays, we decided to do a mass birthday party for all of them. After the party, the girls all put on a play called Frog in the Pond. The girls had worked on it from day one and it was great.
We also took a trip to Hope's brand new high school built (more on that later) and checked out Grace's new Jr. High (I can't believe it). It was so great to have them here and was hard to say goodbye. They left about the same time we headed for church.
