I'm seriously the worst blogger ever! The last few months have been such a blur but I'll do my best to cover the major events that have come and gone!
April: Chase was offered a fantastic opportunity with a great company...in Plano! He accepted and moved to Dallas at the end of the month. Baby girl and I had to stay behind until the adoption was final. Our wonderful case workers did their best to be sure that everything was in place so that we could join Chase as soon as possible.
May: Nothing....still waiting
June: We FINALLY had a court date - Monday, July 1, 2013 at 8:30am!! Once we had a court date I started looking for a job and thankfully received an offer to begin the 2nd week of July! We also frantically looked for a place to live and found a great house north of Dallas!
July: THE DAY WE HAVE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR!!! We made sure that anybody who wanted to attend knew all of the details...Monday, July 1 - 8:15am - Jefferson County Courthouse, 2nd floor, Judge Randy Shelton's court room! We were joyously blessed with 20+ attendees sporting the bright turquoise shirts we had designed for this super special day! We were also featured on Channel 6 news (in Beaumont) on their Forever Families segment! A huge thank you to Ashley Gaston and Channel 6 for being there while we celebrated the most exciting event in our lives alongside the most wonderful family and friends that we could ever ask for!
Everyone waiting to enter the courtroom!
We had a packed house!

Introducing Miss Aubrey AnnMarie !!!!
We cannot thank you guys enough for following our journey over the past few years! Your prayers and thoughts have carried us through when we could see no light at the end of the tunnel. We always knew that our Lord God had a beautiful plan for us and if we could endure the heartbreak and the cracks in our path with fearless determination, we will be overwhelmed with blessings in the end. We look forward to the journey ahead and will continue to live our life to serve Him through the ministry of foster care/adoption. Now that we are finally settled in our new home, we have begun the process of transferring our records to an organization locally and will eventually open up our home to another child. Again, thank you for following us and I look forward to many many more updates in the near future!
