Family 2011

One thing I bet you don't know about Bob and I is that we are adopting 15 more kids!! Aren't they cute?? can you image having that many kids? I feel like they are mine anyway! Here are my adorable kids and nieces and nephews on J.R.'s sealing day. We are so lucky to live by them. I don't think a day goes by when we don't see eachother!

Summer 2011

We made a quick weekend trip to Denver to visit Aunt Nikki before her little guy is born. The kids had a great time. We went to the Denver zoo and a Rockies game! It was so fun. I had no idea how awesome the Rockies Stadium is! We sat in the nose bleed section also known as the "Rock Pile" and it was still so cool!



Having fun in the jetted tub. I have to look for them under the bubbles!

Only one set of stitches so far this summer. I am getting a little braver now that it is my second set. Still no fun for J.R.

Sigh of Relief!

We were holding our breath until the adoption was finally official and signed by the judge! It finally happened on May 24th! What an amazing day!! We worked with our judge throughout the whole foster care process and finally at the adoption hearing he gave us a smile and a hug! What a sweet man and what a tough job! Our family and Grandma Ann went to the adoption hearing and then celebrated at Charlie's for a bit of ice cream! We were also able to take our family to the temple to be sealed together on May 28th. It was the most beautiful, sunny day and it was so fun to have my entire family with us. We were able to get my best friend from high schools' Dad to do the sealing which meant a lot! We have so many people who we hold dear to our hearts for bringing J.R. into our lives and helping us through the process. Melissa, DCFS, teachers, counselors, our attorney, our family, J.R.'s relatives, etc. THANK YOU SO MUCH! We love you and couldn't be happier!
