Here she is!


We are all proud to announce the referral of our daughter and sister, Mason-Kate. Yesterday we received a call from our agency stating that we had received our Letter of Confirmation. This is a document from China stating that the Chinese government recognizes us as Xue Mei's family.
The family celebrated by going out for Italian at The Garlic Clove (thanks for the wonderful dessert Jeff!) and then we all went to Build-A-Bear. The boys proceeded to build two football player bears and have been playing their version of the Super Bowl all night.....go PATS! Then we all picked out a bear for Mason-Kate, had it lightly fluffed and stuffed with four hearts, one for each member of her forever family! We are thrilled! We hope to travel sometime in March.


Chinese Name: Xue Mei

Date of Birth: January 15, 2007

Referral Date: December 7, 2007


She is described as an extrovert, active and can be a little impatient at times.....sounds like she will fit in just fine!


Thank you all for your support and prayers! This is such an exciting time for us all!


B, R, and boys
