Greg Murphy should get an award for this photo...it's like looking into Mateo's soul!!
Buford has taken to wearing clothes, and kissing Mateo...I'm not sure who has more fun!
Shaking hands with the judge...
Hanging out with Nona & Angela Murphy...you can see Cousin Matt in the background.
Why is it that we can't manage to get all three of us smiling & looking at the camera at the same time?
Yesterday, we also went to Catholic Charities for our intake interview to begin a 2nd adoption process. Our intention this time is to adopt a child from Oregon state foster care. Our first assignment is to each answer 127 questions in essay format. They certainly don't make it easy.
It is amazing to be finishing one process (finally) and starting a second one. The objective is to get all our paperwork done prior to leaving for Italy...the social worker will write it up while we are away, and then we will begin to look at waiting children when we get home. No telling when the right fit will happen, but for now we are interested in either gender, less than Mateo's age.
We're off to Boise this weekend to hang out with Rachel's family. Here's to mellowing out time...
All our love, Sarah & Matt & Mateo

Congratulations on Mateo's big day in "court"! Also, we're thrilled to hear that Mateo will be welcoming a new brother or sister in the future. Lots of love to all of you! Cousin Ann
We are very happy for you guys. Mateo is the sweetest boy in the world and he couldn't have found better parents. You make a perfect family and we are looking forward to the next addition. Possibly a girl? WE LOVE YOU ALL!!!
I'm looking forward to another cousin!! Hopefully one that will enjoy hanging out with me as much as I hang out with them. Just like Mateo...
