The last few months have been busy getting ready for Michael to come home. We have not had any updated pictures or information on him but we do have travel dates. We will be leaving for China on August 6th and returning on August 20th. Happy Adoption Day for Michael will be August 8th. It has been a roller coaster ride the last week getting all the details worked out but the flights are now booked, we have our visas in hand and are ready to go to China. Katie and Eli are excited about the two weeks that they get to spend with their grandparents while we are picking up their baby brother. They are also looking forward to starting school on August 16th. Katie will be in Kindergarten this year and Eli will be attending preschool three days a week. It will be a busy year for our household. We will be updating this site while we are traveling so check back soon for all the latest information and pictures. |

Thanksgiving week this year was busy with a trip to Anaheim for Kevin to teach some classes at ACSI and to pick up Aunt Amanda from school, then to Uma and Grampa's house for Thanksgiving #1 and then back up to Coarsegold for Thanksgiving #2 with Gaga and Papa and to work on the house all weekend. Here are the pictures from Anaheim and Thanksgiving! |

Katie turned 5 this year! It is so hard to believe that she is already five years old already. She had her first ever friend birthday party, it was so much fun. |

In September, we were blessed to be able to go back East again to visit with the Dentons, the Squyres and the Dresslers. It was wonderful to get to see everyone again. We almost didn't go because of our house flood but we are thankful that we went ahead with our plans because it helped us to relax a little and have wonderful time with great friends and family. |

Apple picking and a Pumpkin Patch Field Trip were two great Fall activities that Mama and the kids were able to do this month while Daddy was traveling. It was lots of fun! |
