Ulster

That is our word for the month of July.  The Northern Irish teens have arrived and Ulster is very much underway!!  The whole month is taken up by their activities.  The girls here at the house (we have 2) are bonding well with Anna.  It seems like one continuous sleepover, hair, nails, clothing conversations abound. 

Things done so far: Scavenger hunt, picnic, pool party, church at St. Mary's, and general getting to know you events.  Tonight is our first family dinner and a visit from the counselors (to see how everything is going).

They are really interested in going to Taco Bell (!) and we may see a movie tomorrow night. 

Marian likes having 2 new older sisters and Gabriel is not complaining too much :)
