Weddings, retirement, camping, birthdays, Easter, and family....it's been a good spring/summer even while we wait for Royce to come home. We have almost been waiting 11 months for exit letter and even though it gets harder with each passing day, we are trusting in God's timing and praying our wait is almost over.
March--a trip to Wyoming for my mom's retirement and our first family picture with everyone since Joni was a baby.
April--Royce turned 2, we celebrated Easter, and the girls and I did a school field trip to see the Kansas Speedway (super interesting).
May--Joni turned 7, more field trips (that IS a live cockroach), some camping before the summer heat hit, and we went to our first Royals game
June--we introduced the girls to their drive-in movie theater and Joni finally lost her first tooth
July--my family came for a visit and the South Dakota Mission Trip with the Youth Group
August--the girls' friend Jaden came for a visit (she moved to Las Vegas last year), their combined birthday party (see if you can guess the theme), the Eclipse which turned out to be not so great with Kansas covered in clouds, and Andy's cousin's wedding in Texas with family.
September--my cousin's wedding and my grandma's celebration of life service in Washington, Hadley started 3rd grade and Joni started 2nd grade, Hadley turned 9 (and we celebrated with a visit from Oma and Opa), fun with friends (and their goats), and more camping (and fishing).
Thank you all again for praying and thinking about us while we wait for Royce. Adoption isn't for the faint of heart. Waiting is so hard. We thank you for walking this road with us. Love to you all!
