Our Big Day in Court
Today was our adoption finalization for Tommy. Happy Day! Everything went really smooth. We felt like we were in a session of People's Court without all the drama.

Birth Mom's Day
The Saturday before Mother's Day is Birth Mom's day. We were privileged to help host several birth mom's from our area to a Brunch at our home on Saturday. We have been involved with this the past 3 years and have hosted it at our home 2 of the past 3 years. It is a wonderful experience. Each sweet birth mom has such an amazing story to tell. My good friend Niki, who adopted a darling baby boy in February, did the beautiful orchids to give to each of our guests. Several members from our Families Supporting Adoption group helped with the food, etc. It was a great way to start the weekend!

Regional Science Fair
Joey got to represents his school at the Regional Science Fair. It was a busy fun day. There were a lot of great projects. Just so you know .... your socks do come out cleaner if you use soap.
The science fair was held at Dixie State College. Joey has a lot of ties to Dixie College. His Great Grandpa --- Sam Brooks, Sr was the very first student to register there and he slept all night on the steps so he could be the first. This is a picture of Joe's parents holding a picture of Sam Brooks, Sr. This picture hangs in the Alumni House on campus.
The Science Fair was held in the Gardner Center and that building was names after Joey's Great Grandparents ...... Ken and Wilma Gardner.
It was a nice day for me to think about some of our heritage. I did a lot of sitting around and waiting. I don't think Joey thought very much about it. He had money burning a hole in his pocket because all he cared about was buying a new Dixie football at the Bookstore. He lucked out because they were on clearance for only $.66!

Charm packs are sets of perfectly cut 5 inch squares... coordinating samples from a full line of fabric. They are awesome and can really speed up the quilting and crafting projects! Anyway, my sisters are giving away a charm pack for free. It is really cute fabric. Click here if you want to leave a comment so you can be entered in the drawing or click the cute Sproutz button in my side bar. GOOD LUCK! I hope I am the winner.
