This past Monday we met up with Brooke and her family in Sioux Falls. We were so looking forward to finally meeting her in person! She is such a lovely girl...she is patient, kind, intuitive and so gentle. The girls took to her right away--and she had no choice but to cozy in with them as well. With our 7 person van already 6 full, she was right at home b/t Karys and Addy in the back :)
Brooke and her mom and sisters and aunt
Our family with our newest addition
We went to the park after lunch at Pizza Ranch to get some wiggles out and just happened to run into the mascot for the Sioux Falls Phesants
Karys was the only one who would pose with him :)
Brooke and the girls making the long climb to the top of this jungle gym
Their first GREAT adventure together--they were all all smiles and chatting her ear off :)
Toby busy playing on the slide
Addy felt so proud to hold him on the way down the slide
She was also all smiles--even her hair was excited and standing on end :)
After the park we headed over to visit Uncle Jeremy at the outdoor campus...Toby LOVED the fish
Brooke and the girls found a place to camp out and chat inside the belly of the big fish

Already side by side with Brooke on the way out to the van
Addy was quick to realize she wanted Brooke's hand too...so she walked quickly to catch up
Brooke found a finger for Addy to hold onto so they could all walk together...Thanks God for choosing her for our family. We love her already and hardly even know her. We are so looking forward to growing and going together in Haiti this year!
