Sill Smiling

 A day and a half in the van and still happy. That's pretty good.

All the kids did pretty great, but it was a painfully long car ride. Worth every minute.

 Justus Keith Seely arrived the night before we headed home from Utah, and I couldn't have been more excited or felt more emotional. So handsome, perfect, and new. nothing better than a new life. Nice work Katie and Vern, you've done it again. A sweet elderly man once told me that when you have kids that beautiful you have an obligation to have at least a dozen. haha =D........ that means your half way there. the sweet elderly mans wife then slapped him. Congratulations guys. love you. I miss you already. so much more than you know.

 finally has a sibling that looks like her.

Pirate Cove Pizza

 We took the kids out to dinner at Pirate Cove Pizza for fun one night. The kids had a blast. the food wasn't much to be desired, but the atmosphere was neat. A hilarious singing pirate, magician, arcade, play area, and nifty decor. All in all made for a fun night, and happy kids.

Havin fun on the play boat.

Zions Park Utah

 Ammon took us on a beautiful hike up in Zions Park. It was so beautiful. A nice easier hike that we were able to bring the little ones on. Abigail now asks to climb every mountain we pass.

 Jarom, Leah, Ellie, Lyd's, Matthew, and Kathryn.

 Little water falls.

the whole hiking crew. Miah's taking the picture.

 My crew.

New found buddies, Matthew and Daniel

 Edi loved being out side. she was happy the whole hike, and fell asleep on the way back down.

 Smooth easy trails all the way to the first pool. A little more up hill and tedious to the second pool.
