OCTOBER (Week Three Cont....)

OUR 24HR ADVENTURE TO YOSEMITE NATL. PARK

Thursday we decided we were going to ride to Yosemite Natl. Park after we got off work on Friday and then come back today. We called the park before we left and there we no vacancies, so we figured we'd get as close as we could and just crash at the nearest Hotel and drive the rest of the way this morning. There were little options of places to stay but we found a VERY old (clean) motel in Groveland that was 48 miles outside the park. We've both gone to Yosemite many times, but the views from a motorcycle were amazing! We can't wait to take spontaneous trips with our kids (in a car of course)...

October (Week Three)

We finally got around to putting out Halloween decorations.


October (Week Two)

A friends daughter turned 1 this month and she came over to learn to make Halloween cakepops for the party. The party was awsome! So many kids were there. I think the adults had just as much fun as them!

October (Week One)

It has been an exciting month so far. We went to Treasure Island in SF to see the Blue Angels air show with some friends. We had a wonderful picnic, played with the kids and watched the amazing show in the sky!

Contact Us

We are working with Independent Adoption Center (IAC)

Expectant Mother Benefits: IAC helps facilitate the adoption plan (works out contact agreements and expenses), offers grief counseling to the birthmom before and after birth, as well as counsel the adoptive couple. In addition, they offer the birthmom free counseling services after placement for up to 18 years.

We would like an open adoption and wish to be connected with a birthmother who feels the same. Our plans are to share photos, emails, and occasional visits with the birthmother and hope it gives her (and the child) the comfort they need knowing the right choice was made.

We are easy to talk to and can be contacted dircetly, but understand not everyone would be comfortable doing that.

Friends Baby Shower

We hosted our dear friends baby shower at our home, it was so much fun. There were so many little ones it was hard not to be a little bit jealous, but our time will come. It was an honor to share their special day.
