We're Licensed!!!!




We received word from our agency today that we are officially licensed!! Yahoo!!!!  I haven't been able to write about the past two weeks but if you are among our church family, you already know the full story and prayer request about getting the fire inspection completed by August 17th. We were concerned that we wouldn't make our deadline.  First the Fire marshal didn't receive the request, then it was resent, then our payment couldn't be found. It was all very frustrating but through the prayers of friends and family, God intervened and we had the inspection done within a few days!! Everything in the house was in good shape and we passed! Praise the Lord! 



After the fire inspection was completed on Friday, we received a WONDERFUL surprise on Sunday! The members of our Sunday school class gave us a SURPRISE baby shower!

We just thought we were going over to another couple's house to hang out and have dinner but when we walked in the door, our sweet sweet class jumped out and yelled, "SURPRISE!". They showered us with toys, clothes, diapers, wipes, dishes, bottles, books and lots of love! We were so blessed by everything they did for us and for the children who will come into our home.

We were shocked!

The cake was delicious!

At work on Monday, it was so hard to concentrate!  I couldn't stop thinking about the shower and I kept planning out in my head how we would arrange everything. We rushed home from work and put everything in its place! These are the most recent pictures of the nursery. We have tons of stuff from the shower that we still haven't put away.


WE LOVE YOU IRONSMITH CLASS!!!!! 

So what happens now???

We wait. 

We will keep you posted...

Love, 

The Browns :)
