FATHER"S DAY


We had a fun time on Sunday celebrating Father's Day!!! In the morning we went to church and Micah was chosen to sing at two of the three services. Micah along with 50 other kids sang their little hearts out, sharing all that they had learned at VBS from this week!!! The kids did such an awesome job!!!

We then headed back home, ate lunch and Soowan opened his gifts. Micah got him some golf balls, a golf shirt, new swim trunks and a tie holder. He did such a great job shopping for his Dad! Then Micah took Soowan out to play some golf at a little 9 hole course nearby! Later on in the day we picked up my Mom from work and went out to dinner at BJ's Pizza.

Just think, prayfully by next Father's Day our new addition will be with us!!! My mom reminded us of this while we were out to eat, and we almost started to cry at the restaurant! This whole experience is so overwhelming, it's just amazing!!!

Checking In




Micah and I returned from our 12 day visit to California last Monday. We were sad to leave but we were also excited to get back home to see Soowan. Micah and I were able to visit with many family and friends while in California, just some visits were way too short. Two of the highlights of our trip was going to Disneyland and spending an entire day at the beach!!! The other days were spent jumping from house to house, or restaurant to restaurant visiting with loved ones.

Now that we are back home we are enjoying our swimming pool, and busy with VBS (Vacation Bible School). Next week Maggie will be flying in from Sweden and staying with us for 3 weeks. Micah is very excited to have his Aunt Maggie coming for a long visit! While she's in town we are planning to visit downtown and go to the museums and the Fort Worth Zoo. We are also going to drive up to Branson, MO and stay there for a week!!! We've never been there before so if any of you have please let us know which shows are worth seeing!!!

As far as the adoption we are waiting for our referral. We've been on the waiting list for a little over a month now, but we are not expected to hear from Holt International until the fall. So until then we're just enjoying our summer and keeping busy with just the normal day to day blessings life brings!!!
