Lots of Family Fun!

This last weekend we had a lot of family visit. Some of my family hadn't seen Lizzie so they decided to come see her. My parents came on Saturday and Sunday. This was the first time my dad had a chance to meet little Lizzie. My mom of course just wanted to see her again and hold her. We had a great time. They even got to meet Debbie our birthmother and her mother. We met them in Logan on Saturday for dinner. It went really well. It is amazing how adoption can touch so many people and the influences we are on one another. It is great to have such supportive family and friends. On Sunday, my brother Christopher and his wife stopped by for Sunday dinner and stayed a couple of hours before heading home. They have been in D.C. all summer doing summer sales. So this was their first time seeing Lizzie other than on the blog. It was so fun to have them come visit us and take part in the joy of having Lizzie finally here in our home.

Then later Sunday afternoon my other brother Trever and his family decided they needed to swing by and see her, too. They had been down in the Salt Lake area for business and visiting family so they figured it wouldn't be too far out of their way to swing through Lewiston and see the new addition to our family. Jacie my niece wouldn't let anyone hold her. She just wanted to do all the holding. She cried whenever someone else would take a turn. She really loves her new cousin.
Thanks to all of our family and friends that have made an effort to come see us and our baby Lizzie. I know we don't live close and it isn't easy. It has been great to share in this "little miracle" with all of you and for the support you have all given us. We can't wait to see you all again.
