MEXICAN NIGHT!!!








It is funny once you adopt or others found out that you are adopting you add a whole another world of friends & what a blessing they are!!! They are one's that understand all the paperwork, the adoption lingo, the stress, the important mail, the stress, the important phone calls that you are on pins & needles waiting for, the USCIS, the stress, the sleepless nights, the packing, the money situation, the travel & did I mention the STRESS!!!!!

Well we have met a group of families that live about 30 min. from us that all get together on Friday nights & go to a Mexican restaurant (I know you all are all thinking why not Chinese) but anyway here are some pic's of our last time we all met!!! I can't thank these families enough for helping us through this adoption, they have been so helpful & an answered prayer from up above!

3 of the families are getting ready to travel back SOON!!!! Can't wait to have more blessings sitting at the tables with all the kids!

Awesome that you found a group to hang with...not as great as OUR Gao Shao Group or course :) Hope everything is going well with bringing your second daughter home. I will miss you all at the reunion this summer. We will be settling-in/unpacking in NC!

All my love to you and the rest of the Dow Clan....Anne-Marie
