While we lived in Washington, we made life long friends with some amazing kids. I love them all like my own. I literally just wanted to hold them when I saw them after all this time. Holy cow, I couldn't believe how much they all have grown. Not just physically but emotionally too. Mariah and Jake put on a lovely dinner for us and had a bunch of our "family" there. It was such a gorgeous night, gorgeous setting and gorgeous people.
Oh Alex.......you are one of those people, who make whoever you are with smile! I wish everyone could have your heart.
They wanted couples pictures together. I couldn't stop laughing.
The cow wasn't very amused.
I wanted to have some nice family pics of us while we were all together. I finally just took what I could get. This is definitely the true us.
Hayley and Logan.
The little thing with my girls is one of the most creative minds. I'm always in awe of how real she is. She is so open. It was so adorable, she drove on the freeway by herself for the first time to come and see us.
Not all of my extra kids were there that night. But I can say that my heart was so happy to be with everyone. We are so lucky to have all of them in our lives. All of them each different, but all of them with open loving hearts. It's going to be so exciting to see what each of them do with there lives.
The two Olivia's.
The cutest pictures ever. I don't know what to even say about this boy. OK, man. I love him so much. I can't wait to see what he ends up doing. Such an amazing artist. I credit my kids with making such kind friends. They find these kids who are so open and understanding. Whiling to accecpt everyone. I find the way Zach shows his love so touching.
My boy.
I could really squeeze this lady really hard. Love her!
Thank you Washington family for all that you did for us. Ya'll welcomed us into your homes and hearts.
