This summer has been busy and we have been doing many things-wanted to share a few. We are all doing good. Seble is doing great as are the other kids-and it has been nice to be getting back into a routine again......
We went to hear Sammy who is a man that grew up in the Korah dump speak-it was really good. He grew up in the dump and now works with PROJECT 61 to get children out of the dump and into school-it is an awesome organization-check it out here:

We got to catch up with lots of adoptive families -here Seble is reuniting with her buddy from Hannah's Hope-we traveled around the same time and it was great to see them again.
This is the "famous" :-) baby Judah who is here staying with the Cornish Family on a medical visa from Ethiopia-as he gets medical care and has life saving surgery over the past several months-it is an amazing story-check it out here:

| We have a tradition with each of our nieces and nephews-when they get their drivers license on their 16th BD-we give them a choice of getting $100 then or waiting and getting $500 if they go a year without a ticket and find a car to buy-so far they have picked the latter. Adam, being a police reserve is REALLY big on safety and feels that this is a motivator for safe driving for at least a year to develop good driving habits in that year.....we save up the year before each of them has their BD and so far, it has lead to one Niece getting the $500 at the end of the year-here we are with her sister-Tessa letting her make the choice to try and be safe for a year-good luck girl-you CAN do it!! :-) |
We used the groupon and for Jacob's 13th BD took the twins, Jacob and Noah to painball....it was really fun for them.
 |
| Here is the bruise-which they all had all over their bodies when they were done-OUCH! |
Seble has a NEW trick-she now can take off her shirt-and likes to do it regularly! LOL-here is how we found her in her high chair this week :-)
And again on the floor later!!!

Jacob got to go and fly R/C planes with an R/C plane club here in Mt.Angel-he loved it and our neighbors gave us one, so he may start getting more involved in that in the future....here he is with a long time flyer who is giving him tips-he did good!
