If anyone knows of anyone...

We are still trying to adopt a baby. If you know of anyone, who knows someone that is looking to give their baby up for adoption please let us know. We have had a couple of hard weeks with two disappointments in the process...but we are still looking and wanting that special child we hope will come to us. I have a link to our adoption blog list so please tell everyone you know.

The Martins

So it was our turn to get our pictures done...my friend Stacey took it for us. We had a nice dinner with the Hardy's, our friends from Pleasant Grove. We have been doing our backyard today...things always seem easier as you plan them. Let me just say, Flavio and I worked very hard (especially Flavio) to move some rocks into our yard today. I hope it works out okay, I always seem to see something in my mind, but then come to reality when I realize I am not a professional. But I think our yard is coming along and I will add a picture as soon as it is done.

It is a little portfolio of mine...I love photography!

So this is Hannah at my sister-in-law's wedding. I just love this picture. She got a hold of Natalia's veil and this is the cuteness that happened. It was a good day and we got some great pictures.

What a great Summer!

We had a great Summer! We were able to go and do so many things! My parents came, Flavio parents came, we were able to go see my family and we saw many friends! I was able to go to Japan, we were able to go to Cancun...we just had a great summer. And Hannah showed us all how brave she was on a big slide, while her father cried like a baby! :)

NIPPON

So I never mentioned that I was able to go to Japan. My mom paid for the trip and I was able to see a friend get married in the Tokyo Temple. It was amazing! I stayed with a companion and her family, who were amazing! Momoko's mom made Hannah a kimono! It is just beautiful. Tokyo was great, I loved going back and eating the food, speaking the language and just feeling some of the same feelings I had when I was on my mission. I even was stuffed inside a subway train! It was crazy fun and I am so grateful to my mom for letting me go!

So we were able to go to Cancun last week. What a blast. Our room overlooked the ocean and we took Hannah into it for the first time! She loved it. We were able to go to two wonderful places, there in Cancun, one was Xcaret. This is an amazing place that is meant to preserve wildlife and plantlife from Mexico. It was also filled with Mexican tradition. We loved it. We were then able to go to Chichen Itsa, which is an ancient Myayn city. We saw temples and learned all about their culture and life at that time. It was really cool.

We had a blast in Cancun. We would recommend it to anyone.
