My first OSU football game

We've been living in the Corvallis area for over nine years and I had not been to a Beaver football game. Steve recieved 4 tickets to last nights game against Arizona State so we all decided to go. The boys sprayed thier hair orange and I did a little writing on their faces and once their jerseys were on they looked like hard core Beaver fans!! We had a blast, I just wasn't prepared for how wild some fans can be!!! Here's some pictures from last night.

Football & Soccer

Football & Soccer games officially started this last weekend for us. Conor's football game was in a town about an hour away so him and Steve left early in the morning to make it an hour early and I rode over with Grandma and the other boys.
Conor's team lost 30-0. They had a tough first game holding onto the ball. Conor's #8 in the pictures. Parker had his first soccer game at noon so we had to rush back home. Parker did great defending the goal and running around the field with the ball!! We will continue this craziness until the end of October.

New care package

I sent off a new care package to Zoe today. I sent her a photo album with our pictures and a soft blanket that they will hopefully let her sleep with. I will post the picture of it when Ann emails me!

Our file was sent to Guangzhou!!

If you don't understand it's adoption terms for were almost ready to be issued our travel approval. We now wait about two weeks for them to issue us an artice 5 and then wait another twenty or so days for our travel approval!! I also sent off for our visa's today, what a big expense that I wasn't expecting over $400.00!

Here's a few picture from my brothers wedding last night and rehearsal dinner. I was in the wedding so I have very few pictures. I cried like a baby too, I made it halfway down the isle and seen my little brother standing up there waiting for his bride and the tear poured. Of course this started my whole family on the crying path!!! I'm so happy to now call Anna my sister-in-law!! WE LOVE YOU SEAN & ANNA, HAVE FUN IN HAWAII!!
