The state of PA is really beautiful. We loved hanging around the Lancaster, Reading and Denver area. We visited Hershey, took a tour, and saw a cool 3D movie about the evolution of chocolate. We visited the Indian Echo Cave, a historical Weapon Museum, doll factory and the Natural Science Museum. We ate smores, swam and slept till 8:30- nothing gets is better than that.
It was funny everywhere we went Madeline would say "Jon and Kate did this or went there !"
The kids traveled well. We had assigned seating on the way back so that helped. It was great to get away. We can't say enough about Shriner's Hospital- it is an amazing organization. We feel good having taken the time to seek out folks who are truly experts on JS.
Elijah's surgery is coming up on the 20th. He will begin treatments this week to help him get ready for the operation. I am amazed at how much conversational English he knows and how much he understands what is going to take place. I marvel at his determination. The next few weeks are going to be very busy - between the doctor appointments and school being right around the corner time will pass quickly...

I'm glad that you were able to create a vacation around your trip to Shriners. You just have the cutest 6 kids ever Shelly. :) You'll be in our prayers!!!!
Praying for your family. Might have to get some info on the sites you saw in PA. We are thinking of heading that way next summer. Makenna was born in Pittsburgh and wants to visit. We never had a chance to visit Hershey. What is the baby hospital? Keep us posted on the surgery.
Glad you had a great time in PA. Gotta love Chocolate World. The state really isn't nothing to brag about.
Eli really speaks English great. He will be just fine.
Hope to see you all again.
We are so glad you are home. Bethany wants to visit Eli. She talks about him every day. Hershey is lots of fun. We were there in 2005.
HEy just wanted to say GDAY!!!!
