Awe Spring

Today was great it feels like Spring might be finally Here. so what Better then to go out to our great Back yard and swing and climb on the Playset. We always wondered why we put in a Playset in our back yard when all of our kids at the time where way to grownup for it. well last November we finally figured it out when we started this Adoption process. It feels so good to see the three little kids with Huge smiles on there face as they swing and climb and play soccer.

The Joys of being a kid

 

Today we took the kids to Jungle Jim's they could not believe it when we walked in.

They where not scared of any of the rides and they thought it was so neat to be able to drive there own Machines.

Yonelson just loves everything he  all ways has a smile on his face. We still can not get over how well he is adjusting to everything.

Fabrice sometimes we have to remind him he is a kid and to have fun.

Nerlande is so sweet but also has such a spunky little attitude.

What a great blessing to have them home and to watch them just be kids

What cute kids to see in the Email

We recieved these in our email this morning what a great thing to see! They all look Healthy and not to skinny. It's so fun to see there little things you have learned about them just from the few trips. Yonelson all ways wants his shirt nicely buttoned up, and sweet but mischief Nerlande with her Smiles but yet you can tell she will be a handful (we will love it) and Fabrice he all ways looks very Handsome We can not wait to get to know him better on this upcoming trip.

We have been very busy this last few weeks 2 weeks ago Dave and his little brother where asked to speak at a fireside in Provo. It was a very nice Evening to hear them speak about how trials turn into blessings and what effect Home teaching can have on a family. Then on last Tuesday we where at the Ride BMX Nora cup Award at the House of Blues in Las vegas. (wow life is strange some time) Now we are home getting ready to travel to Haiti to see our sweet kids in just 3 weeks. We are busy making sure we have all the goodies the kids need and Donations for the O.

We love you guys and can not wait to see you guys in a few weeks.....

August up-dates

Nerlande is doing well and seems healthy,they say she plays with Yonelson.
she looks cute as ever we love the up-dates but they also make you sad because they all ways look a little bit older.
Yonelson is doing great,. His emotional state seems to be improving since January 2009. Yonelson seems to interact with other children at orphanage and at times can be observed smiling.
we can almost see a smile in this picture. We are glad that the up-date picture of the kids we have read about so far are looking very healthy looks like the donations we are taking down seems to be helping .Thank you to all that have donated and help the O!!
I can not wait to go back in October,they say the teacher has been coming every week in July and some of the kids are saying stuff in English.
we miss you guys !! love you so much Mom&Dad
