Ethnic Enrichment Festival 2022

On Sunday, Harper’s Chinese dance class performed 
at the Ethnic Enrichment Festival.

It was their first performance since COVID started.

They performed a traditional Chinese fan dance.

All of the girls did a fantastic job!

I was so thankful that several of my friends came to watch.

My friends, Siew and Brenda, are two of Harper’s
biggest supporters!  They are always there to cheer her on.

Afterwards, we traveled through all of the
countries sampling the foods of the world.

We had the best cherry lemonade from Italy plus
 tons of food from Laos and Samoa.

It was a beautiful day at Swope Park!

Harper’s 10 year adoption anniversary!

This weekend, we celebrated TEN years of
giggles and hugs and laughter with Harper.
For her adoption anniversary, 
we followed our usual traditions.
She got a new charm for her bracelet.



Then we went to Build A Bear to adopt a new stuffed animal.

She still loved building her bear.

She named her rainbow colored peace bear Reese.

We stuffed ourselves with lots of yummy food
at a Chinese buffet.

We are so blessed to get to spend our lives with
this little bundle of happiness.
Happy 10th adoption anniversary Harper Grace!
