James 1:27 says, “Religion that God accepts as pure and faultless is this; to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.” God desires for orphans of all nations to be loved, cared for, and adopted into Christian families-ultimately so they can become saved, and be adopted into His eternal family through Jesus Christ!

2nd Family Day/Children's Day
I had a doctors appointment on Thursday, May 3rd so I took the day off and after my appointment Isaiah and I had all day to spend together. Friday, May 4th was our 2nd Family Day, but since I had to take the 3rd off I didn't also take the 4th. But we realized while eating Spaghetti Factory dinner on Thursday evening that based Korea's time zone change it was actually our Family Day in the US on May 3rd. Our first meal after getting Isaiah in Korea in May 2010 was Italian food and we happened to eat Italian food again this year (not positive what we ate last year...guess I'll have to see if I blogged the details-hopefully Italian food)!
AND Children's Day (a holiday celebrated in Korea) is May 5th, which we wanted to celebrate too! On Saturday Nonna and Pops picked us up and we went out to lunch and then we parked at a transit station and rode the MAX (which Isaiah LOVES) to meet Elise and boys at the zoo.

Looking at the bears...which he loved last time we were at the zoo. The bears weren't as exciting today.
The big boys walking hand in hand!
It is so difficult to get a good picture of all three boys, but they loved playing in the barn.
Greyson was supposed to be riding in the stroller, but he wasn't interested and since Isaiah was having a wandering day we used the stroller some to keep him close to us.
Daddy and Isaiah enjoying the elephants. Isaiah totally did the elephant call!
The boys loved playing music!
Isaiah was not interested in holding still to have his picture taken with the lions.
The boys getting a few last laughs with each other before heading home.
Elise and her boys loaded up in the van.

I love these family photos on the MAX! Maybe our next family photo shoot should be planned to take pictures on the MAX.
We had such a great weekend celebrating with family! Hard to believe that Isaiah has been home for two years now. We love our boy so much and are excited for many more years and memories together.
