A day at the ranch!

Today, Kevin & I took the girls to the Oil Ranch in Hockley, TX, just up the road from us. We had purchased tickets at the Families with Children from China auction back in March. It is now $12.95 per person to get in and we got the entire familiy in for $20...a steal! We were blessed with a really nice day. They have tons to do there. We didn't get to do it all as we were just worn out. But we had a blast! Here are our pics.

This pool was super for us because it's only 2' and 3' in depth...perfect for the girls!

Your kids are amazingly cute! I can't believe how big Macey is getting. Take care.

Donna,
You are right -- our stories are very much the same. I just checked out your blog and also read about your whole trip to adopt Macey. It is so encouraging to see that her missing fingers are a non-issue. She is such a cute kid (her big sis too!) I hope you don't mind but I'd like to bookmark your blog and keep following along.

Donna, thanks for posting on our blog. I had to come over and see your girls. They are very beautiful, and their bond as sisters was a sight to see.
Congratulations on your family. I hope we can adopt a sibling for Jake one day.
