Summer Days

Summer has been flying by and we are enjoying it!  I am not going to lie though, our house is no fun to be in on the hot days...with just the window air conditioner, it's just not enough for this momma!   So we have kept busy by going and eating lunch with Korey, going to the pool, running through the sprinkler, visiting family...
We recently just went to visit my sister Tresa, and Travis and their 3 kids.  We went to the farmer's market, played in the yard, went to the park, the splashpad, and went to a triple A baseball game with awesome fireworks.  A fun 4th of July!!  We also made it back in time to go to Korey's Grandma's cottage up at the Lakes for a chicken barbecue.  Kooper and Kamryn got on the boat and Kooper even went tubing behind the boat for the first time ever!  Korey skiied too!

We also had another interview for our homestudy.  We only really need to meet one more time with our social worker to discuss the specifics of the dossier (documents sent to the country adopting from) and the profile of the child we will adopt.  Which means we could choose gender and so on if we wanted.  I will make a page about the reasons we feel adoption is important for us and the reasons it is important in general to the country we are considering (Ethiopia), when I get a chance sometime in the next weeks.  Once our homestudy is approved we can move on to sending our paperwork to Africa! 


Anyway, one of the main reasons for this blog is to ask for support and prayer that this process goes fairly smoothly and that we are able to follow what God's plan is for us through this adoption!  thanks!!
