Another September to Remember 2008

Hi everyone, Well Ella had a wonderful September, 2008 which was highlighted by a visit to the Lazar household by Ella's lifelong friend Maya and her parents (now our rest of life friends, luckily!) Jill and Mike McFee. We had a wonderful weekend with the McFee's starting out at a Friday night dinner at Rod and Wendy's house, followed up with an all day visit to Stone Mountain Park. The girls got along famously and the we are already planning a winter trip - maybe to Snowshoe in West Virginia next February. Ella also continues to grow, continuously improve her speech and most importantly have fun. Her best friend, Addison Ritchie, is also featured in some of these pictures - all of the girls are just so CUTE....

Welcome to Ella's Blog

Hi everyone, Welcome to Ella Sarah Lazar's first blog.

How it Started

Laura, Evan and I will be updating this blog as we prepare to travel to Yangchun, China. Yangchun is located approximately 160 miles southwest of Guangzhou, in Guangdong Province, China. We just received our match (referral) on Thursday January, 4th 2007 and aim to travel 4-8 weeks from this date (most likely 7-8 weeks as the Chinese New Year falls during this period).

Watching Ella Grow

Thanks for visiting - we had so much fun updating this blog during our trip to China, that we decided keep Ella's blog updated (once a month) to watch her (and Evan) grow up in front of our very eyes!


Happy 1st Birthday Ella
