Baby's First Movie!

We took our new baby to the Cinerama Dome in Hollywood to see Avatar last night.
We let our foster daughter Sara come too. Here are the girls and their cool glasses.

Adoption Process

The adoption process takes longer than we realized. Jennifer is much bigger and older than we anticipated. Apparently the bib from the homeland won't work.
And this dress will have to find another girl!

Adoption Complete!

Our little Swedish baby arrived this evening. She has had a long day. Stops in Frankfurt and Toronto on her way. She brought all her papers and now she is ours!

She is from Sweden and her name is Jennifer. Please stay tuned for photos and more information of our little baby! We are soooooo excited!

I Love to See Three Temples, I'm Going There All Day

Last week the Young Single Adults embarked on an all-day Temple trip. They started in San Diego.
Tela, ReAna and Rachel on the steps at Newport Beach.
More YSAs outside Newport. We really did finish at Los Angeles (no time for photos), with more than 400 ordinances performed by the singles that day.

Christmas Devotional/Ward Prayer

More than 50 Young Single Adults packed our house tonight.
When there's Ward Prayer, there's food.
And plenty of it!
