i wish we were able to be there this year...

wear orange and walk for adoption.

I need you...

to send me your pass-along cards!

Dustyn has a adoption board in his classroom where we hang pass-along cards. All of the cards we currently have have all been placed with a baby recently (although we haven't taken them down, we need a few couples that are available now). That means we need your cards.

I love handing out pass-along cards!

Send me an email at dustynkamieATgmailDOTcom and I will send you my address.

If you would like some of ours, let me know.

Truly an Adoption Advocate

You know Lindsey from the r house, right?

If you don't, you need to.
She is a.m.a.z.i.n.g.
If you are in the adoption process, considering adoption, or just want to be an adoption advocate, she is the one to learn from.
Her blog is amazing. So many wonderful and motivational posts on adoption.
Oh... and don't forget to read the amazing story of how their family came to be.

For National Adoption Month, Mrs. R (aka Lindsey) did an interview for womenshealth.gov. You can go HERE to read it. Totally worth the read.

Make sure you check out r house couture for all your adoption jewelry needs. So cute. I need all of them.

Congrats to Dustyn!

Dustyn made it into this juried Art Show at the Springville Museum of Art! If you are in the area of Springville during now and Dec 27, stop in and see his painting. It really is an amazing one. So proud of him.

I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints!

My cute niece was baptized on Saturday.
It was a neat experience and we were glad we were able to be a part of it.

For CamRee's birthday, Dustyn and I took her to the Manti Temple and had a photo shoot in her baptism dress. The pictures turned out so cute. Here are a few. There are quite a few more, but Dustyn has been super busy and hasn't got to them all.

We are so proud of you CamRee.

We love you.
