Happy Adoption Day, Kaylen!

We love you, and can't imagine our family without you. We're so glad you joined our family 5 years ago today! :)

We finalized Kaylen's adoption on National Adoption Day, Saturday, November 18, 2006. It was such a great day. We had lots of family and friends celebrate with us that day.
