NJ Area!! Father Frost Party - Sun Jan 11th 1PM

The FRUA NJ (central/south) group is having a Grandfather Frost Party on Sunday January 11th in Trenton NJ (Hamilton NJ).

You need not be a member - or even have had completed your adoption. Last year we had about 40-45people at the event.

There will be food (covered dish), a special visitor w/gifts, and time to meet other adoptive families.

Location:
Knights of Columbus Hall
1451 Klockner Rd
Hamilton Twp, NJ
(it's right off of Exit 63B I-295 in the Trenton area).

Let us know if you are coming ........ if you get lost - dial 609-668-3200.

p.s. our group is not from an adoption agency; we are a group of parents who have completed our adoptions. We all had a variety of experiences - with a variety of agencies - and from a variety of locations

That sounds like a lot of fun, not too far for us, outside of Philly. How soon do you need a definite answer?

Thanks

OUr son is from Kotelnich, though we didn't get to go there in 2004, they brought him to the Kirov baby home for a visit.
Do you have pics of the kotlenich baby home or the surrounding area? I always feel bad I don't have pictures of where he lived, well the inside, someone had given me some photos of outside the baby home.
