July and August 2011

Hi all,

We began the first weekend of July going to the Woodstock 4th of July parade with Ritchie family then driving up to Ellijay, Georgia to barbeque and tube down the river with Veith's, Ritchie's and Stricklin's.....always such a great time!! For a little over two weeks, Evan, Ella and myself flew up to New York to spend time with Grandma and Grandpa. The kids enjoyed their pool and beaches as well as Grandma's cooking/grilling....yummy!!! Once we got back home, it was time to get ready for another year of school.....August 1st, Ella entered kindergarten and Evan entered his last year of high school........

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!
