Happy Birthday Mom

I can't believe my wonderful mom is 65 years young - on Tuesday! I was supposed to attach a video of my kids singing to her! If we get the snow day everyone is predicting, I'll add it! If not, mom we'll call you! I love you and thank you for modeling how to be a great mom!

future tennis pro?

Hanna loves to play tennis in the driveway with her daddy. She can actually hit 3 or 4 baskets full until she's done. Southmont#1 singles in 2021?!

Extra photos

Here are some extra pictures I just found that I thought I would share. I'm still trying to get used to my new computer and trying to get all of our pictures in one place!

Princess Hanna

A couple of weeks ago, Hanna got to the be Homecoming Princess. She got dressed up in her beautiful dress (which it in itself made her feel like a princess) and walk down the track at a football game to give the queen her flowers. She wasn't sure when she got there if she really wanted to do it, but she did it very well! Jerry told Kyle (a high school boy) to hold her hand - and then she wouldn't let it go! She was thrilled when it was over and we got to get ice cream! It is hard to believe that my baby girl is getting so grown up. She is just beautiful - if you ask me!

Ladoga 8 and Under League Champs

Reese's team, coached by Jerry, are the champs this year! The boys were so excited. They were jumping and hollering. Very cute! They only lost one game all season. Congrats boys! I'll post pictures later!

2 years today

Two years today, Tara, our social worker, called during KungFu Panda to tell us that ShenMingYing was going to be our daughter and sister! I can't begin to tell you how excited we were and still are. She has definitely come a long way since then. She is absolutely amazing and shows love every day. She enjoys coloring, using my iPod, reading, and doing puzzles. I can't believe how quickly she can put together a puzzle! :) I know we are definitely biased, but she is so darn cute and smart! Like her mother (used to be about 20 pounds ago), she loves to have her picture taken. She can be quite the ham!

This weekend, we are traveling to Milwaukee to have a travel group reunion! We are excited to see how much the kids have changed. We will be going to a Brewers game (Rain stay away!) and just hanging out by pools. It should be a wonderful trip!
