A Winding Road

I have not blogged for some time.  It has been a busy life.  Well the road had many turns.  We have are way now and we are going to work on that to get were we want and were God leads us.  Here are some highlight on what has been happening.  We got a foreign exchange student from Hong Kong we had her 13 days there was a bearer.  So she went back home so we decided to do it again.

We got a 15 year old girl from Germany (Eva).  We had her 3 mouths and it was a blast.  She is our daughter no matter what has happened.  She will be part of our lives forever.

  Things happened and she had to leave our home. CPS came into our lives.  Well that i don't want to go into much detail but the case was closed and no chargers.  Now we are moving on.  We have some door opening and I can see the light.  We are hoping to get started on our paper work so we can soon have a daughter in our home.  I have been directed this way for some time it just get steered a different way.

We are on our way of spring cleaning we have our bearms all clipped back and mulched.  Just now waiting for them to grow.  Its going to look so nice this year.  Over the weekend we were at on of our favorites stores getting rock to put around our trees.  The boys saw there teacher and said Ella is her that is there daughter that they just adopted in Dec of 2010 from china.  Oh she is so cute.

It has been a while since I have posted.  Been busy with the four boys and such.  On March 9th Conner had a little program at school.  Randy took off work early so both of us could go.  We figured that we had better do a few things that would be closed by the time we got back .  Later after school we were going to eat waffles at a little dinner in Stapleton.  We went to tractor supply and got our dog food that we needed and that had this little cut Bunny's.  Randy let me get them for the boys. We had to bring them home before we left.  We walk in the door and we both said oh crap.......  Candy our little chihuahua got into peanut butter chocolate girl scout cookies that Randy forgot to put away.  We called the vet and they told us to put peroxide down them so they would vomit.  So we did and candy did vomit but Boomer did not. We did not know if he ate them as well.  Now it is 2:30 and we needed to get headed the program started at 3.  I sent Randy with the camera to Conner's program while I rushed the two small dogs to the vet.  Candy had to be sedated while they pored charcoal down her and for Boomer they made him vomit and there was no chocolate in him, so he was okay.  Candy took a few days to get better, but it sure did not stop her from trying to get junk.
