Reid's Gotcha Day Party!

For some reason, blogger is having problems uploading the massive amounts of pictures we took at Reid's Gotcha Day party this past Saturday...  but at least I got two of my favorites on here!  (To view the rest, you can look in my Facebook pics.)

Here's the little man-of-the day in his customized tee... it says, "Forever A Peterson, October 5, 2009"...

...and a family pic in front of the bounce house...Reider LOVES the camera, if you can't tell. =)  And, I think he looks so much like his Dad in this pic...


We all had a GREAT time celebrating Michael Reid last Saturday...we had over 80 friends and family join us for his party despite the cold weather!  Only I could have picked to have it on the only cold day we've had in TX all year. =)  There was a bounce house for all of the kids, tons of cake, ice cream, football, etc... Thank you to everyone who came out and who has prayerfully supported us throughout our entire adoption process.  It means the world and we will be forever grateful.

I will try again later this weekend to get some more pics up of all our fun friends and family from the party - we love you guys!
