Lee, Amy, Lilia and Kaiser












The countdown is here!

We leave for Ethiopia 6 weeks from today!!  We will be leaving on December 11th and arrive in Ethiopia the night of the 12th (which happens to be my birthday and the best present ever!)  We will see our little man the next 3 days, and then head to court on the 16th.  Then we leave the night of the 17th and make it back to Denver at noon on the 18th.  We have so much to do until then!  We are still taking donations if anyone is interested!  We get 4 free bags and are trying to fill them all.  Plus gifts for the nannies and the kids in the state orphanage.
Our dear little South Jeffco Sabercats lost their playoff game today and we are sad about it.  It was a great year and we are proud of them!
Lilia is loving all the leaves and has jumped in them a bunch.   And she has a new FAVORITE show.  Dinosaur train is out, and Dino Dan is in!  Lee and I really miss dinosaur train though, and are sad to see it go.  I just love this picture of Lilia and it might be one of my favorite ones ever of her!  I look at her and think.......you are the most beautiful girl God ever made.  Inside and out.  We are lucky!!  Our good friends have a one-year-old who was pulling Lilia's hair today and she told me about it.  I told her she might have to get used to it because her baby brother might pull her hair.  She said, "Is he gonna pull it all out?"  It is gonna be a transition for us all, but especially for her I think.  I know she will be an awesome big sister, though.

Pumpkin Patch- Still Waiting for a Court Date! (10/23/10)





We went to our favorite pumpkin patch last weekend at Anderson Farms and Lilia had a great time.  It has been freezing in years past but this year it was really hot!  She loves the barrel ride and the tractor ride out to the pumpkin patch.
We are waiting still for a court date.  We have moved up on the list to #13 and are really hoping for late November, but wouldn't be surprized if it wasn't until December.  Either way, it is coming soon and we can't wait!!
Lilia and I are going to her first girl scout meeting today with her Daisy troop.  She is still loving gymnastics and is looking forward to skiing and sledding this winter.  Pray for a quick court date!

Sick little guy :( (10/10/10)

  Please say a prayer for our little son!  We got word this week that he is sick with a respiratory infection and is on antibiotics.  There is also a mumps outbreak where he is at.  We wish we could be there to hold and comfort him, but w e know that the Lord is with him.
Court dates are coming along, and there are 16 people in front of us right now.  We are hoping for late November, but thinking it will be December.
