• Hi There!

    Hi, my name is Jonni and I am Mommy to Sofia (5 years old) and Samantha (5 years old) and wife to John. We reside in upstate NY. Our daughters are 5 mos. apart in age and a whole lot of fun. Sofia is from Jinchang City, Gansu and she turned 11 mos. during our trip to bring her home from China in 2007. Samantha is 5 mos. older but was our 2nd adoption. She was 3 years, 4 mos. when we brought her home from China in 2009. She is from Yangzhou City, Jiangsu.

    I love blogging about our girls, photography, fonts, printables & crafts and I also have a slightly obsessive John Mayer addiction. Thank you for stopping by. :)

Liene - Looks like it was a fun time but dislike the snake. Don’t think I’ll be swimming there anytime soon! Your photos are beautiful as always. Maybe I can convince you to tutor me some time. Granted my DSLR body is so basic I can’t do much with it but I have lenses! :-)
