Since the celebration was in the same town that Uncle Braden, Aunt Clarissa and Cousins Hadley and Braxton live; we decided to make a weekend of it and spend some time together.
Hadley & Braxton love their "Baby Titus"
We had the special treat of watching Braxton and Coach Braden in action during a basketball game on Saturday morning. We often wish we lived closer so we could enjoy more of these fun aunt and uncle moments.
I think B was having a great time.
Love that smile!
Because it's preschool basketball the coaches are on the floor at all times. It's great that the little ones can have one-on-one help. We had a great time and it's really hysterical watching this age play!We were also ecstatic when they in turn, decided to attend the CNY party with us. Hadley was overjoyed as she loves reading about other cultures. She has been reading lots of books from the library about CNY, China, and adoption. I love to watch her learn and explore.
Thanks Hadley for helping me make egg rolls!
We spent a lovely evening eating, talking and meeting with other families. It never ceases to amaze me how God uses adoption to build families. We saw several classmates from our alma mater, Ozark Christian College, that have also adopted from THOGL. So exciting to watch how God intertwines our lives yet once again.









All your kiddos are cute but of course I am drawn to the newest addition...what a CUTIE!!!

So glad you had this opportunity and family around to enjoy together.
ReplyDeleteLove the family picture at the end. =)
ReplyDeleteI also love how the heart for adoption spreads through families. It's really encouraging to hear about someone younger being so interested by it and all that goes along with it.
