HE HAS NO CHOICE NOW...

Whether he likes it or not we're Ty's family forever!!  It was such an awesome day - one I never want to forget nor my kids.   I was happy all day long and just felt like everything was right in the world.  One of the highlights of the day (and even my life) was walking into the temple with Paul and all five of my children.  Words can't describe.   
Thanks to all of our family and friends who made the effort to by there.  It made the day that much more special.   And a big thanks to my sister, Anna who stayed after and took so many pictures of our family (and I mean, so many).   I think she did a great job and I do believe I found the picture that will forever document the day.  You're the best B!!

Now that Ty is legally and eternally ours the question of the day is . . . Are we going to do it all over again?  Stay tuned.

I am so happy for you. We are adopting (going to pick her up in about 5 or 6 months) I can't wait. There are so many emotions, thoughts and feelings. I love seeing the joy your family has experienced.

Paul & Amy - We are so happy for you! I was just thinking about your cute family and thought I would take a peek at your blog -- what wonderful news! You have a beautiful family.

Congrats Amy! That is so exciting. I can't even imagine how amazing that would be to be in the temple with your whole family. What an experience. I love how that first picture completely captures it.

On another note, yes that's April my sister's doing that thing with. How come you know her?

Don't you feel sorry for people who don't get to experience the utter joy of being with all of your precious babies in the temple? Adoption is AMAZING! Congrats!

Bray said...

Yes, we are getting her from China and we are very very excited. The story of our adoption is very interesting and too long to tell here but when we see in at Aspen Grove I would love to talk!! Can't wait to see you and your beautiful family!! I feel so lucky to be invited.
