Adoption Day! May 9th we adopted Jacob, Andrew, Lydia and Benjamin. It was a busy day. We had to go to McDonald's (part of the tradition), then the court, where the judge gave all the kids a stuffed animal and mom and dad big candy bars. Then, it was on to the baptism of Jonathan and Jacob so that we could all attend the temple later that evening. This was followed by, a cake and ice cream party with friends at our home afterward. It was a busy day with our last guests leaving at 11:30pm. Aleceeya wasn't able to attend this day but we thought of her often and talked to her later on. By the way, she is progressing n her program and she wants to be home by the time school starts...we'll see. Meanwhile, this is the all of the kids now...officially Thill's.
This is our family on "Good Things Utah". It is a local talk show. I think I was the most excited delcalring," i can't believe i am sitting at this table with you guys!" whatever happened to play it cool?
