July 1 2012

The kids have been out of school nearly a month now,still soooooo busy all the time.
Gymnastics and TaeKwonDo go on as usual and of course i go to work. Stan is leading a high school running club this summer 3 days a week for a couple hrs in the am. Dad and kids go swimming a couple days a week and then take Tuesdays to do a FUN DAY.... Te local theme park or something of that sort. Te weather has been good,not too hot but not cold either.
We had been in Escrow for our own new house and then at the last minute our loan professional(lol lol ha ha) totally dumped on us and haad not bothered to get the correct loan in play that we needed due to our situation and we had to aborth the purchase. We were/are FURIOUS!!!! our real estate agent is furious,the seller is put out and the list goes on. It wasjust what we needed and now we ar back to square one....... You expect to hire a professional to know the business,well all was wll till the end,then he realized,though will never admit it was hhis fault,in fact,tried to turn it back on us. GRRRRRR we will keep you posted and we start on our hunt again,for our just right forever home.

Laurel and I and two other of her gym team mates were blessed with section 123 row 17 seats for the womans gym trials in San Jose. We were even invitd to the pre event meal and drinks before hand. These three little girls were just in their elements!!! It was a super special occasionfor them,im sure a once in a life time event.Laurel and I will be flying to Idaho in about 20 days(but who is counting),for gymnastica camp. She and Stan went last year and i stayed home with zak. Laurel has made a paoer chain to keep track of how many days till take off. We are both looking forward to going,Zak not so much. He doesnt do as well without mom so dad will have to have some things planned to keep him busy. He will be going to TKD so as to keep up with his belts and testing.
The boys will drive to Oregon at the end of gym camp and laure and iwill fly to them where we will spend a few days with Zaks foster sister from China,Lila Ann and her family in Salem.

We are about to celebrate Laurels 7th anniversary of her adoption. 7 yrs ago to day we were in beijing, do you all remember how hot it was???? lol man it was hot!! we were seeing the sights and bideing our time waiting to meet laurel. I kept having to stop and slow down,tell myself "slow down,enjoy the sites,the smells,the time,before you know it it will all be behind us" it was hard but we did it.   I will post the usual pics of laurel and daddy that recounts the first pic we posted of her and daddy staring into eachothers eyes that day in China. She still is so tiny but almost too big to hold in that position.

Zakary is doing well,earning more and more stripes and belts in TaeKwonDo..and just so sweet.

Life is busy and still very rewarding...Hope you all are doing well as well.
