Last week was a busy but exciting one for us! On Friday we had Kennedi's re-adoption in the courts here in Fresno. When we landed in San Francisco from China she was a legal US Citizen and we did not have to do this part of the process but in order to receive a US birth certificate for her we did so we decided to go ahead and do it. PLUS it makes things even more offical! The ceremony was really neat because in China we had nothing like it (they just gave us a piece of paper stating she was ours). They made us swear in, they asked us questions, the judge went around and met all of us and my parents, and the kids were able to sit in the jury box! We took pictures but unfortunately something happened to them and they were deleted from my camera! :( Kennedi was all decked out in a USA outfit and looked so cute!
Then on Sunday Bradley and Mark were baptized at the church's annual Bar-B-Que Baptism at Central High School. The pictures above are from Sunday. Kennedi was having a great time in the pool and most of the pictures of course are of her. There are obviously ones of Bradley and Mark being baptized by Pastor Steve and Pastor Shane and the bottom one is of Katelyn and her friend Kennedy and our Kennedi. It was a great day!
Other than that, we're just chugging along. Summer is a month from being over (Kennedi and Bradley start on August 14 and Katelyn starts August 18) so the kids are just enjoying hanging out at grandmas. They will be attending a Creative Arts Camp in a week or so, so I'll have pictures to post of that when that rolls around. So, until then.....
Be Blessed and Live Today Like It Was Your Last!

Hey Tina,
I know what you mean by not having time for the internet any more. I post a lot less than you. The kids look great! Kennedi looks liek she is blossoming. Happy four month anniversary of "gotcha day"!

Great pics! Maggie has the same suit, but she prefers her bikini!
Hi Tina, Love the update! About the photos, don't give up. Were they on a digital card I'm guessing? Try putting them in your printer if it has a card slot. Just because your camera says no photos, does not mean they are not still there. Sort of like an old cassette tape where the music is still there even if you don't listen. Make any sense? Unless you have reformatted the picture card, they could still be there. Also, you could try taking the card to one of the kiosks in the stores. This usually works for me. Good luck!
