marisol


omar


this is why i love josue. he counted 1-2-3 so everyone would know when i was taking the picture...at least he got the memo! you know what, though, if all of them were looking at the camera and smiling it would be wierd and unnatural and i wouldn't like it!


two things about this weekend that i forgot to write:

my devos on sunday, the day the boys went to church and the park, started like this: give yourself fully to the adventure of today. ha! how fitting.

saturday morning i took the beastly van for a test drive and went to the ranch! dan and ivey had some wheelchairs for us, and another guy who was there gave me 5 garbage bags full of clothes. it was great to see dan and ivey, and the pole barn is coming along great. it's beautiful...simple, but you can tell thought was put into every detail, and it's got a lot of mexican influence in the colors and design. it's going to be a school for orphans someday! exciting stuff.

today we got some HUGE NEWS. marisol and omar, who have been in the adoption process for years (literally) are leaving TOMORROW. like, tomorrow! it's so exciting. they are going to be missed a lot, but everyone is just so happy for them. i can't wait to meet their parents!

here's a video of marisol and omar talking about leaving...

dinnertime craziness...

thelma, in perfect rhythm with the music, dancing AND eating at the same time!
