New family blog....

Well, we made it home from China four weeks ago and I can only say it has been so wonderful!!!! Savannah is such a very happy little girl. Sierra and Savannah get along well. I will not say there has not been any challenges because there has been but she has responded well and attempts to not show that behavior again. We feel completely blessed to be her parents. This is truly an answer to our prayers for her, for us and for our family.

Yesterday Corey turned 23 years old. I am just shocked that my son is at that age already!! He is such an awesome person. He is so caring and loving especially to his fiancee Anne. We are just excited to have her apart of our family. When they are together, they both just glow.

Brandon was home this past weekend because Savannah was baptized. I promise pictures when I receive them from Grandpa Billy. He took so many while I was busy with everything else. I am so glad because I forgot to get my camera out. It was nice to have Brandon home. Due to some issues with is car, he took the bus and train home from St. Paul. He said he enjoyed the train but the bus.........well.......he might take the train all the way home next time.

Billy is on the upcoming TEC team. We are so excited to be apart of the weekend. Even if it is only in the back ground. He has become such an amazing young man. Oh yes, we have our arguments but what teenage boy and his mother does not. But I can promise you one thing, if anyone is every in need he is there for them. I love that about him.

Sierra is an amazing little girl. She has been such a wonderful sister to Savannah. And there has only been a couple of times of jealously. I am so proud of her. She even helps with the communication for Savannah. I don't know what it is but Savannah and her communicate together better than anyone else can. I guess is goes back to the sister thing....I love watching them two together. They can bring a smile to anyone's face....especially when you think of where they came from and how far they came...emotional and spiritually and psychologically.

Well, Mike and I are planning a cruise for our 25th Anniversary next year. We are also hoping to take the girls and Billy out to California next summer to visit my brother and brother in law. We want to visit Disneyland, and China Town.....and hopefully the beach at least once.

Well we are so excited to have a blog to update...........our family blog for some reason is having some issues and so I developed this blog............if we go back to the family blog I will let you know. I will be posting pictures and adding many other things to our blog as well. I am so excited to have a family blog again!!
