This past weekend my very cute, red headed little brother, Justin, age 11, got sealed to our family in the Twin Falls Temple! We have had quite a few years with our little Justin in raising him as a baby and loving him and losing him and loving him and losing him again and again. I was about 16 when Justin entered our lives as a newborn and I remember caring him around in his
carseat at the Dairy Queen and taking him to my games as I cheered, my sister
Jakobi had him at soccer games and we changed his bum and watched him grow. He finally entered our family as the adoption became real when I was a Sr in High School. His biological mom is named Heather and she "married" a man much older than her and then came Justin. My mother at the time was taking care of Heather's mother who was losing a battle with cancer and then when she passed, Heather kind of got scared and gave us her little boy Justin, then just a newborn. Then off and on for years he was back and forth. The poor little guy, sometimes there were months where we didn't know where he was, but then he was ours for sure. And now he is ours for the eternities!!!!

Me and my brand new
niece,
Lizie.
After the Temple and
IHOP we raced to Boise to get
Jakobi and her
kids on a plane to Portland and
Kortni and 2 of her girls (I kept
Alizah) on a plane back to Spokane, we stayed in Boise and went to
Pojo's on Saturday.
After
Pojo's we decided to get on the road and head back to Washington, but not before a quick stop to see "Bumblebee" from Transformers! We explained to
Alizah and Beck how Bumblebee only transforms at night because he is shy.
Beck was way super excited and kept trying to look Bumblebee in the eye and talk to him. Way super cute.....
