Piper's Baptism

We celebrated Piper's baptism on Sunday, July 17. A special thanks to all of the friends and family who helped us celebrate this day and our daughter!

Our China Doll continues to grow and flourish. We love her more and more each day; she is the greatest gift ever.

I wanted to share a short video about adoption with any of you who are interested. You can check out the 7 minute video by going to http://www.bringmehope.org/video/index.html . WARNING: The video is rated TJ for tear-jerker!

And please check out pictures from the baptism listed below.

Piper wore a cute outfit we got while we were in China.

Piper's First Beach Trip...

We had a great time at Isle of Palms. Piper loved the pool and the ocean. And she added more restaurants to her quickly growing list.

We also had a chance to make a visit to CWA and introduce Pier to the wonderful staff who helped to unite us.

And we had a mini-reunion with Baby Janine & Baby Caroline, two other super cute China dolls!

Check out the pics below and check back soon for more updates!
