Daddy took the girls fishing a few weekends back, and they had a blast. They found a great fishing spot with a nice sitting area, but unfortunately, didn’t catch any fish. We’ve yet to find a good fishing spot that includes fish! They had so much fun with their dad!

july 24-27
Nadia’s birthmom and her new husband David came and stayed with us for a few days.(We were able to attend their wedding ceremony in the Ohio temple in March)! It was fun, and great to hang out. The girls even got their hair trimmed by Leticia, who did a great job, as this is her profession! They loved playing with their little dog Pepper too, which was good, because I hope it got wanting a dog out of their systems! Leticia has taken dance her whole life, and showed us some dance steps and danced with the girls on our dance floor. Aaron and Cami and fam came and hung out one night too, which was great.

We’re excited for Nadia to look back and see all the people that love her in her life, and the hardest and most amazing decision that was made by a mother who knew it wasn’t the best decision to keep her baby, and give that precious life to a home that was waiting and ready to love and raise that baby.
