Please forgive the awful pictures and extreme whiteness but we were having to much fun in the pool to snap any others except after all the fun. 4 years is fast approaching. 4 years ago I thought to myself how will I live after placemet? To go back to work? Tuesda.

Our journey to and through the open adoption process. Friday, May 25, 2012. We were confident, but we also knew that our level of confidence did not matter. After what felt like an eternity, the door opened and our counselor directed us to another room down the hall.

This blog is about my life during and after the placement of my sweet little Bubba. In my eyes, his parents are perfect for him and for me. They have helped me through a lot and continue to love and support me. Monday, July 4, 2011. I have been very bad at writing on here.

I have to hunt down the recipe every time I want to make them, so I thought I would put it in a place that I can find it easily and share with those that want it. Best sugar cookies ever! Love and miss these guys! Tuesday, June 5, 2012. The children are out of school! Monday, November 7, 2011.

Tuesday, December 4, 2012. So, blogspot is asking me to pay monthly to keep up this blog so I have to switch to another free site. I know I am cheap! So, to continue reading about us you will have to head over to. Wednesday, November 21, 2012. So, this morning I tried uploading a picture for this post and it told me I am at my picture limit. Friday, November 16, 2012. Arizona Teacher of the Year! .

Thursday, January 29, 2015. All the presents under the tree after Santa came! My favorite thing, Christmas cards! Trying to get crafty with photos. Porter was a grumpy goose, so we eased him into Christmas with his stocking and cuddles. Shaine and I think too much alike. A new, fantastic vacuum that I use every other day! Porter trying out his new drill! I stink at getting pictures of anything but the morning opening presents, but we had a great time with both sides of the family! Thursday, June 19, 2014.

Saturday, November 24, 2012. One of her first poses. Special thanks to Elise Millett for this photo shoot. From her first day to this, she has been our happy child. She only fusses when she needs something. Abby had her turn in the cow outfit this Halloween. Each child has been in that outfit for Halloween. The snow was falling in this picture and she was laughing to beat the band. She loved it! Monday, February 13, 2012. There is a lot .
