Finally Finalized!

Drew's Finalization 7/24/09

Yesterday we had the honor of making our Drew an "official" Horton and a U.S. citizen! The day was beautiful, we were surrounded by family, our social worker, and some guests from Korea. What a day! Drew didn't know what to make of it all, but he sure hammed it up as we were waiting for out turn! The judge was very kind and accommodating with our large (and loud!) party. Here are some pictures of our special day.

What a joy Drew is to our family. We cannot believe we are done, done! No more paperwork (unless you count our certificate of citizenship!) Our family is complete and it feels soooo good!

Congratulations. I am so happy for you all. I can't wait until that is us and ALL of the paperwork will be finished. Wow, I can't believe you did that 3 times. The amount of paperwork must have been huge, but you have a wonderful, beautiful family to call your own. Thanks for sharing them with us. God bless.
