Our past met our present this weekend
We went home to Kosciusko this weekend for a visit to introduce our sweet girl to the rest of our friends and families. We started off at Dawn & Shane's for dinner and cards. I can't even begin to tell you how much we miss them. Dawn is my "person". She likes me even when my crazy spills out. Maisie, Madeline, and Jon Austin get along pretty well, so they played together while the grown ups played cards.
Saturday we had family pictures taken. Robert's Uncle Kevin took them for us. I honestly hate looking at myself in pictures. I would prefer to be the picture taker, but for the sake of preserving memories, we took family pictures. Maisie is so photogenic and gorgeous. She doesn't even have to TRY to be pretty, she just is!
Saturday night we went to Williamsville for the youth's "Womanless Beauty Pageant". My, oh, my it was too good! The boys.. I mean girls were beautiful, hairy arm pits and all! Maisie went to wrestling in McAdams with Madeline, Jon Austin, and Kevin. She seemed to have a good time!
Sunday was super busy for us. We went to church at FBC Kosciusko with Dawn at 8:30. Then we went to Williamsville at 10:45. It was so good to see our church family. Many of them prayed for us throughout our adoption process. Maisie was very overwhelmed. We sat with the youth which made my heart smile. I miss them so much and I'm so thankful for the time we had with them. I'm glad they got to meet Maisie and see God's sweet gift to us.
Our last stop was at Chad & Alysha Thompson's house. Robert & Chad have been friends for many years and are really more like family than anything. Bailey Katherine & Maisie hit it off quickly! It was good to see them and be able to spend time with them. We are planning on seeing BK's cheerleading squad perform at the end of the month.
All in all, it was a great weekend. We are, for the most part, done with traveling for a little while. At least I hope so!
