A Great ComeBack

Well, what's been going on??? Sooooo much in the Holloway world - keep reading!

All in a week...

We flew to Philly to see some great friends of ours get married. It was awesome, and we got to hang out in this great little town called Media, and help setup and be a part of their really cool celebration. Loooong weekend, GREAT band, lots of beer (not for me of course!) and a killer hangover for Chris - ha ha!

Next was the 4th of July...a holiday I just think was meant to be spent on the beach. Chris and I walked Hallie down to our beach and sat on the boardwalk to watch fireworks in both directions, talking about our crazy weekend. Too cool.

The best part???? I knew Rachael was flying over the state, and headed towards Tampa - excitement boiling, legs flinching, so ready to see her family. Final destination - HOME and out of the Ukraine! Priceless :)

Par-tay for Rach! Saturday we hung out at Mom's and welcomed everyone to stop by and say Hi and welcome her back. We had tons of people, lots of food. She shared lots of stories, and awesome gifts - it was great.

So she's back!!!!!!!!!! And about to take on another great responsibility...an adorable puppy that we went to visit once she got back. As if the Ukrainian life wasn't hectic enough (no showers, angry Russians, scary food, walking for miles, freezing cold, and lots of sacrifices we could NEVER imagine), she's welcoming a new addition of which I think she will be wonderful with - Sophie, her new puppy.
