My Family

Yesterday was a great day for us. The FCC-LI group had their annual Holiday Party and it was awesome. We had a blast seeing all of our friends and we even made some new ones. Joseph and LilyRose had a good time too. By the end of the day, LilyRose looked liked she hadn't slept in weeks. We were amazed, but she didn't cry when she went to see Santa. Maybe it was because her big brother Joseph went up with her. She's not afraid of anything when her big brother is with her. Just think, this time next year she will have 2 big brothers to protect her...

That's right. We have a new son. His name is Jack Anthony and right now he lives in Vietnam. We are hoping to travel to bring him home by April or May 2008. He will be 8 years old in March and we couldn't be happier. Here is the link to his blog: http://www.ourjourney2jack.blogspot.com/

I have posted a picture of him and will be updating his site again today. Please stop by and leave us a comment, so that Jack can see how loved he really is. Please don't forget to leave a comment here for LilyRose and Joseph too. I guess I will have to make a blog for Joe now too.

Congratulations on soon adding Jack Anthony to your beautiful family! He is handsome, and what a lucky little girl LilyRose will be to have not 1, but 2 big brothers!

Loved the picture of your beautiful family!

Well, now I have HUGE goosebumps!! That is great news! I will go check out Jack's blog next. Joseph looks as handsome as ever and I cannot believe how grown up Miss LilyRose looks. You can see how independent she is when you look at her pictures. You have a beautiful growing family.
