The Court Date!! Yahoo!

We are so excited to finally have the opportunity to officially adopt Seneca into our family! Here are some fun pictures documenting this event. I really want to express my gratitude for her birth mother. I am so grateful for the choice she made to allow us to raise Seneca as our own! So, thank you!

The Temple

Matt and I are so excited and blessed to have Seneca sealed to us for time and for all eternity. Here are some fun pictures to document this memory.

March Pics

Here are some fun pictures we took this month.
I was asking the girls to close their eyes while I pulled out little tutu's I made for them.
So cute, Elizabeth is closing her eyes...but not Ana...hA!

Yes...so stylish! We got the onezie in Hawaii a year ago and had to wear it before she grew out of it...only problem is it's cold...so, I made her wear leggings.

The Zoo!

We had a great time at the Hogle Zoo one Saturday afternoon. We went with Papa, Grandma Joan, Uncle Rob & Aunt Ness, Aunt Kristin & Uncle Guy...and Uncle Adam and Seni

Swimming Lessons

I signed Seni and I up for swimming lessons as the local recreation center. It has been a lot of fun! She really enjoys the water. She's still to young to understand blowing bubbles and such...but we just have a great time together!

Tribute to Grandma Sue & Grandpa Ray

My dad has been monopolizing the pictures here with Seneca and so as a result my mom and Ray felt they didn't have enough with her. So, here is a tribute to Grandma Sue and Grandpa Ray.
