Adoption Day and Celebration



So its final! We went to court on Tuesday morning. It only took about 15 minutes. Jason and I had to get on the stand and verify our names and information and state that we wanted to adopt Laneah. Then the judge ruled in favor of adoption and it was over. We took some pictures with the judge and then got our paperwork and left. It is such a relief to have everything finished. Now we have the sealing to look forward to next week.

Saturday was our adoption celebration. We had family and close friends over for a bbq and pool party (at Jason's grandparent's house..no we don't have a pool :) It was great. The rain held off until after the party and the sun was shining. Laneah actually did really good in the pool too. It was a lot of fun! We can't wait for our trip to Missouri and then Nauvoo:)

We had a lot of fun too! Sorry you didn't make it into any of my pictures, don't know how that happened. I didn't make the dress, a friend just opened an online store (on etsy) with baby clothes that she makes at home, I loved the colors of that one. She only makes girl clothes, so I guess I won't be buying anything for myself!
