Globe-Trotting Tots

As many of you know, Matt and I moved to Budapest, Hungary with the Board a few years ago. We worked primarily with university students and young professionals as we taught conversational English and ran a small community center. Well, in preparation for our time abroad, we spent a few months in training with other workers. We made some great friends during this time and were able to keep up with quite a few of them, though we were all in different countries!  Luckily for us, they are all in the Atlanta area for a few months working and visiting family... Thus began our road trip to ATL!
It's hard to believe that the last time we were all together, there were only two tiny babies. Now, there are eight! (Not to mention one a week from being born and another adoption in the works!)
Here are our globe-trotting tots representing Italy, Spain, Hungary & Tanzania! (2 babies not shown) 

Gideon got a pretty big dose of pink & frilly, but had a blast nonetheless! 
We took a few nature walks and the girls seemed to like digging up rocks and playing in the dirt just as much as G did! Here's sweet Sela leading the pack!
Charlotte needed a power nap to keep up with big kids!
Tickle Monster!
We played at a cute little park in the center of the town square one night before dinner. The kids loved this  cool train!
These two could seriously be twins!

G wanted to swim in the fountain so badly but settled for scooping out all the pennies! Ha!
Adorable Eden
Mandy & I with our growing brood! 
It's so crazy that after being apart for so long, we could easily pick up right where we left off! I am so thankful for these friends and the time we had to catch up! I'm so encouraged and challenged by each of their walks and consider myself blessed to call them friends.

Love you guys and look forward to being together again in the next few years! Who knows how many little ones we'll have then!
