We have "no news" on the adoption front. We are still waiting for our updated medical report and have requested new pictures. I will follow up on this AGAIN by the end of the week if I have not heard anything. I am really excited for my friend Kristi who will be traveling very soon to get her sweet girl. God is good!
In September our family participated in "Race for the Cure". This is something we have done for several years now and always enjoy it once were there. Eric's aunt Linda is a breast cancer survivor and we walk in her honor. It is wonderful how many walk from our church community and I love that we share so many aspects of life together.
We are so thankful for Aunt Linda!

Kaylin turns "10"
I can't believe I have a child that is 10yrs. old. We had a friend birthday party at our home and then we took the girls to Claire's for the last hour of the party. Did you know Claire's offers b-day parties? I didn't either! When I heard about this, I thought it was the best idea ever. Instead of going somewhere and paying for food, party bags, games etc... You buy each girl a $5-10 gift card and they get to go shopping for something they want. It was so easy and the kids had a blast! What 10yr. old girl does not want to shop at Claire's. I really enjoyed being with Kaylin's friends. They are all a lot of fun and made me smile the whole night!
Blake's only find at Claire's...dinosaur fossil. :)

Last weekend we went to the Oregon State Football game in Corvallis. We had a really fun time and it was the kids first time to be at a college game. My sister is a Junior at OSU and we met our family at her place. They have such a beautiful campus, lots of trees and neat old buildings. It was much different than the small christian college I went to. The Beavers won, and fun was had by all!

Blake and Eli-Best Buddies!

Where have you been girl? Haha- I know, it is hard to find time to post. I loved all the pics - what a cute idea about Claire's. I even enjoy going in there ;). Hoping you get updated news soon!
Thanks for the shout-out! :) I've been wondering where you went! I was hoping the next time you posted you'd have guardianship news. Hey - crazy idea, but it might work...we'll be in Delhi (isn't that where Ava is?) and I was thinking if your agency would let us we could go to her orphanage and take pics/video for you, maybe take her something from you? If you are interested and think that your agency would allow this, let me know. My e-mail is kristiwerre@yahoo.com

Hey there! I'm a bit behind in blog land. What's your baby status? Praying for you guys and your sweet baby girl.
Next time we're in Oregon we need to hook up. Where does your husband work? Crazy both our guys are in the same industry.
That's a great family picture!
It's always sad for me to see Kaylin and her friends and not have Emma be there... They're all growing up so much!
Hey, Cheryl, I have a blog now. Help Kaylin start one and then we can be blog buddies!
