WE ARE FAMILY!

   It's legal!  She's really our DAUGHTER!  FOREVER!

                                 After anxiously waiting, Guinea Pigs in hand (yes, Guinea Pigs),

 

and visiting with two very special social workers who were there for her every step of the LONG way home,

                 We finally had our turn in front of the judge, Guinea pigs in tow.  Doug and I raised our right hands and said, "WE DO" to all he asked!

    Then Alanna asked the judge if he would sign a decree for her to officially adopt her Guinea pigs.

   So the judge asked Alanna to raise her right hand and promise to be responsible for the love, care, and education of her Guinea pigs.  She said, "I DO", and the judge signed.

   


                                    Now we are legally a family, Guinea Pigs and all!

                            


         With a very beautiful little girl who will celebrate her 11th birthday, next Wednesday, finally HOME with her FOREVER FAMILY!

      So what do you do after you finalize an adoption?  Well, you go to your dance class (where the  teacher already knows because Stephanie has put it on Facebook), then you come home and decorate a gingerbread house,

                    and have tacos for dinner with banana splits for dessert!

                                 WELCOME HOME FOREVER, ALANNA BANANA!
