We got one!


I was hoping when we learned we were staying at the White Swan Hotel that we would get the famous Adoption Barbie and when it wasn't here at check in I assumed they weren't giving them out anymore. Today, we got back from breakfast and there it was! Yea! I know it is goofy for a grown woman to be excited for a barbie but, these are special and you can't just buy them anywhere. Thank you Mattel, you are awesome (they give them to all adoptive couples for free staying at the White Swan). I gotta get to bed because we are getting up early to possibly catch a sacrament meeting that one of the other couples found out about but, I have to say the best thing about today was meeting the Browns from Grantsville. They are wonderful and I told Jon it was just like we were old friends. They adopted a little girl who is 3 and so cute! I hope that EmmaLi and Lydia are going to be great friends for a long time. We followed them around all day and I think possibly made their ears numb from talking. It was wonderful to meet them and we enjoyed shopping with them very much. We are truly blessed to keep meeting "angels among us" through this awesome journey. We are so grateful to Heavenly Father for allowing us this great opportunity to be here and to raise another of His precious daughters.

Glad you had a better day. EmmaLi is so stinkin' cute. I know I say it all the time but in case you forgot, I can't wait to meet her in person!

YAY! You got one. Ruthie plays with hers all the time. You sure have a couple of cute daughters!
