Church Play

Both kids were in the Christmas play on Sunday night.  Zoe was a beautiful cow and Chase was a Shepard.  All the kids did great and they did an awesome job of telling the Christmas story!

Hope's Baby Dedication

Today was Hope's Baby dedication.  We promised to raise her in a family that will teach her about God!

Happy New Year's!

Wow alot has happened in the last couple of weeks.  The kids return to school tomorrow after having the last two weeks off.  They are ready and I am ready!  Also on December 6th we mailed off our I-800A application to the US government, this process takes a couple of  months to get approved.  Tomorrow we get our fingerprints done in Portland and then after that we wait for our approval.  Meanwhile I have been to Salem twice on the same day to get papers Certified an they are now at the San Francisco Chinese Embassy to get Authentication.  Were getting close to being done with the hardest part of the process.

New Year's Eve our Church met at a coffee shop that we had reserved and we snacked and played games.  My parents and Landon came along.  Afterwards we returned home to play a game of cards and then off to bed before the New year began.

Mother Daughter Tea

Today was our Church's 2nd Annual Mother Daughter Tea.   It was filled with lots of good food and friends and family!

Fun with Church family

We had a great night spent with our church family.  We all met at the MU basement where they had bowling, pool and food!  The kids had lots of fun.

Vacation Bible School

The kids had an awesome week at Vacation bible school this week.  On Thursday their cousin joined them for the day.  I braided Dallas & Zoe's hair, they looked so cute.  That night the church had a BBQ and Steve was one of the grill masters.
