It's Official!

Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart...
~Jeremiah 1:5
She is ours forever...even though we already knew that!

Billy's mom was there to celebrate and take pictures for us. We got some good family shots...as you will see in the following photos it is not easy to get 4 kids to all look at the camera and smile!

The Lord has done great things for us and we are filled with joy. ~Psalm 126:3

Waiting to go into court...
And more waiting...
It was actually our shortest wait for all our adoptions!


And our judge was the nicest we have had. She gave Jasmine a little bear (seen being held by her). And as previously noted...4 kids...smiling...looking at the camera...at the same time...NOT easy, people!

Adoption rocks!!


Checking out the suspicious bear.Hope deferred makes the heart grow sick, but when dreams come true,
there is life and joy.
~Proverbs 13:12

That first family picture looks great! The perfect Christmas card picture if only you were dressed for it. :-)
I love her new smile with her face all scrunched up.
Vivi raising her hand... too cute!

Great pictures so glad Billy's mom could be there to capture the day for you.
