Liyah's Birthday Party

The Girls Decorating Their Christmas Tree

Excited

Sorry I have not been posting lately. Photos are not wanting to load. Hopefully I will figure out why soon. On to the exciting news. We are officially licensed as foster parents. We are getting our first placement on Monday. Her name is Liyah and she is 8 years old. Our first placement happened a lot quicker than we were expecting. I have been moving stuff out of the room that will be hers. The room was our office. The room is cleaned and ready to be painted. We are going to let her pick the color of the room and the bedding to go with it. We have her enrolled in school already. Courtney took care of this yesterday. She will start on Tuesday. We are praying that the transition goes well. She was here on Wednesday for a visit. The visit went well. Ashley was her little shadow the whole time she was here.

R.I.P Mackenzie

It was a very sad day in the Snyder household yesterday. We no longer have our dog Mackenzie. She was hit by a car yesterday morning. Luckily Ashley did not see it happen. Ashley doesn't understand what happened. She was crying because mommy and daddy were crying. Mackenzie was our baby before Ashley was our baby. Our dog Tunny seems to be doing okay without Mackenzie around.

Foster Care

We have started the process of becoming foster parents. We have done two sets of classes, had two home visits, fingerprints, and some paperwork. We are not moving to quickly with the paperwork we still have quite a bit to do. The paperwork seems so daunting. Oh well a little at a time. I still need to do a CPR class. We are excited and nervous about this journey. The unknown always makes you a little nervous.
