We have a court date!

I was notified today by Fei with ASIA that our court date is scheduled for 6/26/08 at 9:30AM Taiwan time. So, that means TOMORROW at 6:30pm, our case will be in court! I was so shocked (although I had been praying for a miracle) to find out that it was scheduled so soon! Thank God for answered prayers! Fei at ASIA predicts we'll travel mid Sept, early Oct, but I am still praying God will do even more of a miralce and allow us to travel during the summer while the boys are out of school and we can adjust to having Anna in our life!

We are hoping to bypass the waiting and go directly from the hearing date to being given First Decree. You can read more about how the Taiwan Adoption court process works here.

If things go the way I hope it will, we could get a ruling right away and by mid July receive our Final DECREE... Travel seems to happen right around one month after... so I'm hoping for travel around Mid August! Anyways, if you're reading this and it's before 6/25/08 6:30pm, please pray that God will show us favor with the judge and that nothing will stand in the way of the court process going smoothly!

Portland Marathon 2013 (My First ever Marathon Recap)

I wanted to capture my moment by moment FIRST marathon experience so here goes: I'll start with the night before: We went over to Aaron's parents house to have some dinner with them as well as Micah & Danielle (Aaron's brother and wife) and their kids, Gabriel and Grace, and Mathew and Taylor (cousins of our kids).   We got back to our hotel (Hilton downtown) around 7:15pm and I organized my outfit for the big day while Aaron took the kids swimming at the pool.  I agonized back and forth about whether to carry my Nathan hydration vest or not for a week and Aaron finally helped me make the decision that although the aid stations were going to be plenty, I should go ahead and carry my own water.... because he knows that  1) I don't like stopping to get water even if it's a moment because I feel like I lose momentum 2) I am really BAD at drinking from the cups and have gotten multiple water sloshes up my nose (which hurts!) and water on my shoes (which, is BA...

I am OVER DUE :(

Happy 9 months since LID! I was in a very goofy mood and BEGGED my DH to take this picture of me.... Had I been expecting a tummy baby, I'd be officially OVER DUE. I think I have WAY too much time on my hands :) Gotta go tuck my kids in bed now.

Much has happened...

It's been exactly one week since we were given our bad news about not being able to adopt the girls from Indonesia. God has really comforted us alot during the past week... I still have a hard time not crying when someone asks me when we can go get the girls.... In my excitement, I showed so many people at church and friends the pictures of the girls because in my heart, I really felt these girls were ours. But, God is not done writing our story ~ I know that this will have a Godly outcome and we will move forward. We have had lots of support and encouragement ~ most people we know well have expressed their sadness over this. I returned the bedding I bought for the girls at the store and when I did, I was sorta in a sad mood.... the person handling the returns said "Are these not going to work out?" to which, I replied "No, it's not" and then she felt like she had to push the issue with me and said "Is there anything wrong with it?" By then, I...
