November 29, 2008

Do you like Elijah's perm????? Just kidding it is a wig. Our son from China had his first Thanksgiving and we forgot the camera!!!! Time was well spent with family at the farm.



Remebering November 2005 in Great Falls, Montana. What a difference three years can make. This year Thanksgiving day Graedy ran a Turkey Trot- 5miles with his best friend Joseph in Windsor, CO. Elise helped Grandma Jean the day before Thanksgiving make three homemade pies and set up the dining room for the coming visitors. She is quite the good cook!


Our Sneha waiting in India- twelve months and two weeks. We were sad to hear of the trouble in India. We need your prayers for the people of India and for our Sneha that we can safely bring her home. We are still waiting for our INS approval so that when India gives the ok we have the papers to go get her. The process before us still is waiting for the NOC from India and then her papers travel through the courts for three court dates.

The flag of India.

The flag of Ghana, where our other daughter Pearl waits. The ball is finally rolling to get the paperwork started for Pearl. The process is rather simple, but each part of the process takes time and of course we can't get fingerprinted for Ghana until the homestudy is submitted is to USCIS.

The Friday, Saturday, and Sunday following Thanksgiving were spent with Elijah, Elise, and Graedy all sick. I just had a thought with five kids they could all be sick at once or it could possibly drag at for weeks at a time. Time to stock up on OJ and vitamins and rest for Mom.
