Summer Pictures

Ok, we know we have not kept up with our blog. We will try to do better! So much has happened and God has been faithful. We are in the 3rd stage of the adoption and although it seems to move slowly, at least we are moving. Our approval process and homestudy are completed and we are now getting our dossier ready as we wait for approval of our CIS-I-600A(Immigration Services).

We appreciate your prayer and words of encouragement. They mean so much to us.

Summer has flown by and can't believe its time for school. Alex & Avery are at camp this week. First time Avery has been away from home for a week. It has been harder on us than her! We have been to San Antonio and enjoyed a great week at the beach.

Please pray for CIS to move quickly and smoothly. Once that is completed, our dossier is sent to Ethiopia and we are officially on the waiting list for our baby. Please pray for the adoption finances. Philippians 1:6 being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.


Here are some pictures of our summer.

Remember the Alamo!




We forgot to mention, Jim went swimming at the river walk!
(Have you ever known someone who fell in the river? Now you do)

Love your pictures. We love you and are praying with you for God's provision in every step of the adoption. "No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind can conceive what God has prepared for those who love Him." 1 Cor 2:9. Love, Mom & Dad

I've always wondered if anyone has ever fallen in the river. Now, we know!

Praying for your journey!
