We love you and will miss you!

Many Blessings…

We have been very blessed this past week.  We are now home owners.  Yeah!!  The house we wanted is ours.  We got short sale approval from the bank and two weeks later were able to get the keys.  Mikey is so excited.  I don’t think there is a man out there who is actually happy to have a honey do list like he is.  I should paint before we move in, but I don’t know what colors I want to do.  Once we are settled I can figure out what I want.

Also, as you know we went to classes and are licensed for foster/adopt.  Well, we have finally been placed.  We wanted a boy between the ages 0-2.  Well, we got two boys (twins) ages (now) 10 days old.  So, right now we are long term fostering and we will see if we will be able to adopt them.  Lauren is a great big sister.  It is quite a lot to be going on, but we are so excited.  I am ever so grateful for a loving Heavenly Father who has blessed us with so much.  I can only credit Him in all that we have and are able to achieve.

Our Graduate…

Mike had his graduation ceremony Friday, May 7th.  We are so proud of him.  It was a long 9 months of him gone Monday-Thursday nights.  He had perfect attendance and Dean’s List.  Congratulations!!!  We love you!!

Mikey’s 37th Birthday….

Friday the 16th & Saturday the 17th (his actual birthday) we celebrated Mikey’s birthday.  Friday night we went out with a friend who was in town for the weekend.  We haven’t seen her in about 6 years.  We walked around Old Sacramento and then ate at Joe’s Crab Shack.  They had him dress up and walk around.

This is Lauren looking out and Kim & I

Mikey found this in Evangeline’s

 

Saturday we went to his dad’s to celebrate his birthday along with his brother (whose birthday is the 18th).  It was his dad, his step-mom, brother, sister-in-law, my mom & her husband, Lauren, me, & Mikey’s grandpa.  We had a good time BBQ-ing.   Lauren loves the backyard.

Birthday boys!

Grill Master!

It was such a beautiful day!  Happy Birthday Mikey!!  We are so glad you are ours :o)

Happy Birthday….

Happy Birthday Lauren!!  Can’t believe she is already 9 years old.  Time is going by too fast.  She is growing up to be such a sweet, loving daughter.  We are so blessed to have her.  Happy birthday baby!!  We love you!!

Hoping & praying….

We put in an offer on this house.   It is a short sale.  The seller accepted our offer, now we just wait for the bank to do the same.  Then hope the inspections go well.  We are praying this is to be ours. 

Waiting….

I wish waiting was easier. We have all our interviews done for adoption. Now we just have to wait for a match to come along. Hopefully soon…

We put an offer on a house that is just around the corner. We love the house and the more we think about it the more we like it. So now we have to wait and see if he will accept our offer and hope all will go smoothly. Hopefully soon we will hear something…

So we are just doing the day to day while we wait…
