James is 9!

James was baptized on Friday night and Saturday we planned a swim party and BBQ for his birthday.  Unfortunately, James wasn't feeling very well.  He ended up having a fever and so we just did something small.  We did give him his gifts to open, and rescheduled his BBQ swim for next Saturday.  Happy Birthday James.  We love you.

Baptism Day

This young man is so excited. He has chosen to become baptized as a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.  He has been waiting for this day for so long.  Now that he is officially ours he can be baptized.  We are so proud of him for his decision. 

Summer fun

We had to pull out the slip n slide we won at the company party.  It was really hot and the boys wanted to try it out.  I would say they loved it.

James had one last thing to do to earn is Wolf in Cub Scouts.  He needed to talk to someone who worked in public service.  I called an old friend, Curt Oja, who is a detective for the Yakima Police Department.  He came over to talk to the boys.  They enjoyed trying on a bullet proof vest.  I thought Malachi would fall over it was so big on him.

Work party

Jon's work had a summer party down at Ahtanum Youth Park.  We went and they had good food and some pretty fun games.  Jon and James entered the 3 legged race and they won a prize!!  A slip n slide with bowling pins.  James was pretty excited that he won.

Adoption Day!!

What a great day today was.  We finally adopted the boys!!!  It was so fun to have so much family there with us.  We were the last adoption of the day, but it was so worth the wait.  We have these two cuties with us forever.  We also closed our foster care license today.  We are done doing foster care.

Officially Robbins

We are so excited to have these boys as a part of our family.  Thank you to everyone who came and supported us.

After the adoption we went out to celebrate by having dinner at El Porton.

Jon's birthday is on the 23rd so we sang Happy Birthday to him also.

It's been a great day.  I'm so glad to be the mom of these 2 boys. They are so sweet and special and the smartest boys.  We love them so much.
