Maylani's Sealing

Here's the ladies on the way to the temple. Coming out of the temple after the sealing. This is Salley Lee our adoption agent. Maylani has loved being around her since the beginning. We will forever be greatful for her and the hand she had in bringing Maylani to our family. In the 26 years Sally has worked for LDS Family Services, our case was the fastest she has ever placed a baby, 3 weeks. She busted her tail for us. Thank you Sally! Here's the whole group at the luncheon. We were on the temple grounds in the fale. Also are some pics of a couple of our good friends that were able to make it. This is one of my best friends Jenn Inouye and her mom Annie Erbe. I consider them family. Jenn is definitly one of my sisters. Annie is amazing. We had asked her to give Maylani her name, Leialoha. So this is Maylani's Hawaiian grandma and auntie. For those who are not familiar with the island traditions, everyone is ohana (family) and everyone is auntie and uncle. Jenna and Maylani have many here. Tom and Jenn Inouye There are very few people that Maylani will go to besides me. And very special guys in her life. Aside from papa, Maylani loves to go to her uncle Tom. She lights up everytime she sees him. Fiztgerald Family: Leslie and Jimmy with Carly and baby Taylor. Kip really loves to get in trouble with Jimmy. We love hanging out with these guys. Some of Jenna's little friends: Carly and Lulu (my hawaiian Bella) More friends: Lulu Richter again and Halle Inouye. The Richter's: Phillip and Brianne. Maylani also loves going to Uncle Phillip. We also enjoy hanging out with these guys. Brianne is also like another sister. I have many awsome friends here I consider sisters.
