It's official!

After Sarah told the judge that she wanted to stay with us...

We are finally considered a family under the law.

Sarah's reaction sums up how we all feel.


The lucky kids who got to miss school to see their cousin officially adopted...and Suzy who took off work to be there.

We are thrilled to have this step done and look forward to the eternal step soon. Thanks to everyone for your love, support, and prayers!

Where is a picture of the cupcakes? I was so impressed with the detail on each one . . . even the eye color! (and they were really yummy) I'm glad we could be there today. It was very cool!

BTW- The eternal step is going to be so overwhelming wonderful. I can guarantee it:).

Ma, you liked all the details? Like no mouths? I told Bryton I wasn't doing mouths because everyone was in bed and shouldn't be talking. I need to schedule a time for your kids to come do cupcake day with me. Ben may rather play games with Kevin, but that would make Kevin happy. The banana cupcakes I made the other day taste much better. I'll post pics later.
Claudy, thanks for the message. I can't wait for the temple. Then, we get to figure out how to bless her without her squirming away from everyone. There's something to be said about blessing them when they're really little (and not mobile).
