Rewind Mulan for the 15th time......

Ok, Hannah is in LOVE with Mulan!! This has to be her favorite movie ( I wonder why...). Every time we get into the Expedition she expects it to play! We must have watched it over 45 times in the past month and a half! Hopefully when she grows up and goes to college she can work at Disneyland and portray Mulan throughout the park.....but that's a Big Brother's dream..... ;-)

We had a birthday party for my dad's 60th birthday!! He has had a rough year so far. My dad's health is not the best and we have had quite a few scares with him this year. It was a really nice day.

One Year

One year ago today we got our referral for a beautiful baby girl. So much has happened in the last year. We could not be more thrilled with what God has done for our family. Hannah is growing up to be the cutest little toddler. She has had so much happen this last year of her life. She didn't even know that a family was being matched for her across the seas. The love in our hearts was/is growing everyday for her. She has been such a blessing for us. I pray for her birth parents daily! Some days it brings me to tears thinking what they are missing in their beautiful little girl. I just want them to know that she is safe and LOVED so much. Here is the first picture that we saw of Hannah and then the most current. We love you a bunch Hannah Mei Joy!!!!!!!!!!

Funny Face

Hannah is getting into making funny faces when you ask her to. Emily taught her this while she was home on spring break. I think we are going to have a rough Tuesday, the kids go back to school.

Nine months ago today Hannah was placed in our arms. It is amazing how fast the time is going by. She is really a wonderful child. God is so GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Prayers anyone???

Hannah loves to say her prayers for food and bedtime!!!! It is an awesome sight to see such a little girl wanting to pray!! Keep it up Hannah!!! Jacob and Emily will ask her to pray for anything just to watch her. Enjoy the video! Turn the music off at the bottom of the page so you can hear it.

Hannah is 23 months today. It is amazing to see how much she is learning. She is so sweet. I just love her too pieces. She has so much love in her little heart. We love you lots pumpkin!!!!

April Fools!!!

Ok, for April Fools Day, my friends decided to really get smart, and end up pranking me. My good friend Zack printed off roughly 160 flyers stating that I "desperatly need a new girlfriend". As false as this is, it was quite funny! I was not offended, and got a good laugh out of it. Sadly, the dean of women had a different view. She soon found out, and grabbed as many flyers as she possibly could. Zack ended up having to apologize to everyone the next day in forum, and had to do three days of lunchtime trash pick up. It really was no big deal, no one was offended, and in my mind, should not have been punished. But it really was an awesome prank!!
