Taiwan R.O.C.ks...

... has launched on Facebook!!!  It's growing by the day, everyone is seeing new faces for the first time or old faces that haven't seen in while.   It's quite amazing watching these families that are coming together, sharing photos and their journey to their children.

Taiwan R.O.C.ks was launched to get the invitation out to families across the country for the 1st Annual Taiwan R.O.C.ks reunion in Dallas, Texas in August 2011.   This will be the first gathering for the families and children from Taiwan and other Asia countries.   If this is a HUGE success, then it will moving annually across the country, so families can be apart of the annual gathering as the location moves closer to their region.... That's the goal!

However, Taiwan R.O.C.ks has became much more than an invite these last few days on Facebook, it's become a HUGE place to meet other families to chat.   If you would like to join the group, go to Facebook, and search for  "Taiwan R.O.C.ks"   If you're not on Facebook, there will be a blog popping up soon for families to share photos and of course, more information on the reunion in August.

Wrapping up another year...

~~~ 2011 Here we come!! ~~~

Ellie received her Fairy wings this year at Renaissance Festival...

We discovered an AWESOME playground...

We had to share our discovery with Miss Hayden and her mommy when they met us for some play time on their visit to Houston...

                    And the girls LOVED it!!!  We can't wait to visit with them very soon!

We just loved hearing their giggles...

        

     the joy they bring into our lives is SO magical...

                       it just melts our hearts to see our girls come together by LOVE and adoption...

       to watch this wonderful friendship blossom is the MOST two amazing gifts that two mothers could receive ...our daughters.

             A Christmas Festival with SNOW... Ellie isn't too fond of it though...

    The night before Christmas, and Ellie is still awake with a snack..

   Thank you mommy and daddy for the box that's just my size!!!!

                                                           These boots are for dancing!!
