National Adoption Month

November is National Adoption Month.

I thought long and hard what to write about adoption. Nothing really quite struck and I think that is partially because I have written a lot over the past year plus about our little Landon and our adoption experiences. This Sunday Michelle and I are in charge of the FSA Fireside. I am specifically in charge of a slideshow and while looking for quotes to add to the slide show I came across a link to a video on YouTube. I found this link on saltlakefsa.blgospot.com . As I watched the video I was really moved and thought I would share it with you as my message for


Included as well are some of the most recent pictures of our peanut who we love so dearly.

Popi and Landon ready for a wintery day. Finally Landon has learned to smile for the camera. No more Alfred Hitchcock poses.




The second Monday of every month at the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village they have an outing for th kids. This last one had to do with Movie and TV Costumes. It was really fun to put Landon in front of a green screen (top photo) and then to look on the Internet several days later and see what he was really standing in front of (bottom photo). We have so much fun taking him to all of things at the museum every month. Now that he is walking and has really developed a personality it is so much fun to trapse him all over Detroit doing fun things.

I finally made it to your blog, Hallie! For some reason I thought you wouldn't be blogging without internet, but now I see your blogging life is still active! I will definitely be following along with your adventures!

The best part of my day was getting to snuggle and play with Landon. He is such a sweetie.

Love your costume Hallie!
