Our Family is Growing

The Box family is growing, we are in the process of adopting from Ethiopia. We hope to bring our son home early next year. We don't have a lot of details to share but he is 8 years old and well, really that's it :) We have completed our home study and are in the immigration "steps"....in other words - we are waiting.  As we get more updates on our adoption process I'll post...you know, for all 5 of my peeps who read this ;)

Summer is here!

The week school let out we went up to Crystal Beach with some friends. We stayed Friday night and did the beach the WHOLE day on Saturday. It was fun....the kids were busy the whole time. It was really nice to have a house to shower and clean up at before heading home Saturday evening. It's so fun to watch all our kids get along (that's a lot of getting along y'all - 12 kids!). Couple friends...they're the best.
