Happy Birthday Moses!

Today Moses is two years old! It has become a tradition to make a birthday video for the kiddos around our house. This one's for you, Moe!

Get ready....Here we go!

We are leaving in about a week and a half!! This week has been busy making travel plans, shopping for the trip, starting to pack a little, but mostly just trying to process that we are finally here at this point. We are so excited!! Please keep our family in your prayers as we work out the details of everything and for Moses, too. Thank you!

The phone call came!!!

Today, as we were in the middle of our school day, the phone call we had been waiting for finally came! We have travel approval from China to get our Moses! Our family coordinator told us that we could be leaving 2 weeks from tomorrow if we can get a consulate appointment. Yay! We are thanking and praising God for this news! We will keep you posted and would love your prayers for when we go, for Moses, and for the things that we still need to do. Thank you so much!

There goes that alarm clock AGAIN....

It was back to school for us this past week. Gone are the days of sleeping in, going to the pool, and watching full seasons of the Cosby Show just because we wanted to. I have just as hard of a time starting back to school as the kids do. There were tears (by me, too!), but we made it through week 1! Noah is taking a Consumer Science class this semester, aka Home Ec, and we all have been really looking forward to him taking this. We enjoyed some of his homework this week....cinnamon applesauce muffins. Yum!

Summer Camp 2013

Summer Camp is very special at our house. My kids talk about it all year long and can't wait until August when they get to go. I love seeing their excitement as they pack up and get ready to go and picking them up is even better because the hour drive seems so short hearing all the stories and fun they had. Noah and Abbey had another awesome time at camp! Remember when I said that camp is special at our house....Jason and I met at summer camp and have wonderful memories of growing closer to God there and are so thankful that our kids are making those memories, too!

Mommy/ Daughter Day and another step forward!

My friend, Tammy, invited Hannah and I to go to Kings Island and Great Wolf Lodge. We were celebrating Dulce's sixth birthday and we had a blast!(Thanks Tammy!!) The last adoption document came in the mail and was sent to China this week. Now, we wait for travel approval which should come in the next few weeks! Please continue to pray for all the travel plans and timing of when we should go. We can't wait!!!!
