Joyful Honda-we love to go here as a family. It's ENORMOUS!! There's a home section as big as Home Depot. There's grocery store as big as Kroger. There's a pet store as big as Pet Smart. And a HUGE food court. This is all in ONE building!

IT"S OFFICIAL . . .

WE"RE REALLY ADOPTING!!!!
I keep pinching myself to make sure I'm not dreaming. :) We have not posted because we didn't want anyone else to know before our family and since we told them Friday, now I can jabber on about it all I want LOL! We had our homevisit on Saturday and it went really well. It was very laid back. We have a couple of courses to take this weekend and that's it!! Our homestudy report should be completely finished by the end of next week and then it will be sent off to the agency and we'll be officially waiting on our match! We're adopting through the US Foster system so things run a bit differently than with international adoption. OMG I can't believe it's really happening. This has been a part of my heart since I was a child and I just can't believe we're really doing it. Everyone keeps telling us how great it is that we're blessing the child but we're the ones that feel blessed.

We can't wait for you to be part of our family little one! May God keep you safe and sound until we can bring you home.
