A birthday party

Our friends, Rick and Susannah's little boy Micah, had his first birthday party at our house

A June wedding

At the wedding of a good friend, Lyndon Gilbert.

My sister Vanessa and Lyndon

St. Louis

In June I spent a weekend in St. Louis visiting Sean and Liesl McDowell. Their first baby is due in July and we celebrated with a shower.



It was really fun to see other Covenantites like my little brother, Jon!

Memorial Day weekend

Andre's family came to stay with us for several fun-filled days over the Memorial Day weekend. We had his Mom,

His cousin Julia and aunt, Lyuda,

And of course, Grandfather

We packed lots in! A church picnic,

A trip to Stone Mountain,

And a feast (Russian style!) in the "grand dining room"

Moving: our summer home!

In May, Andre and I moved into a beautiful house in MidTown, Atlanta for the summer. We are house sitting for a couple in our church who are away until September and have the run of this lovely old house. And I'm only five minutes from work!



And here's what we did with all our belongings!

Easter Weekend

Over Easter, Andre and I took a quick little trip to Orlando and had a great time at Universal Studios (see below!)

April 2007

In April Mum and Dad moved up to Peoria, Illinois. Dad was offered a great job there (plastic surgeon) and they felt the pace of life would be better for them. We are very sad to see them go but are excited for them as well. Here's all of the Jones family at a goodbye party for Mum and Dad in April.

All the kids: my brother Stephen with his wife Rachel, my sister Vanessa with her husband Sean and the Russians!
