Happy Birthday Felice.. We miss you already!

Felice left us on January 1st.  We thought it would be best to start the new semester in her new house and also Luke and Sydney were moving into our house.  So, as sad as we were, we said goodbye.

 Little did we realize, well I think we did, the new family ARE AWESOME!!  Felice isn't going to think about us for 2 seconds.  They planned a huge party for her complete with her favorite "american" chinese foods and chocolate cake.

 She had about 8 friends from the neighborhood and ward stop by to celebrate.  She has NEVER had a party so we really wanted to make sure she got one this year!  She loved it.

 Sorry the pictures are all blurry... I am not the best photographer.  We ate yummy food and played bingo with cool prizes. 

Felice finally gets a sister and has been really branching out with the Boyers (the new family) to meet some new church friends and go to church on a weekly basis.  She's even been working out at the church at 6am twice a week (this is the girl who won't wake up till 11 or noon on the weekends!!). She is finally coming out of her shell and we can't be happier.  We felt all along that she wasn't getting the total American experience, but now I think she will.  It was so meant to be to know the Boyers and I think they are excited to have her as well.
