Happy Gotcha Day Turner!!!

It's official.....
Turner Cantrell is a Satterfield! Yippee!!!
This morning we went to court to finalize Turner's adoption.
Happy Gotcha Day sweet baby Turner.
We love you to the sun and back and are so honored God chose us to be your forever parents. God is Good!

Our judge was so sweet! I think we might have scared him with all the pictures we took! But we never want to forget this special day when our baby boy is "officially" ours.
After court, we all went out to eat and then John & I took Turner to the zoo to celebrate! We had so much fun and the weather was perfect!
Thank you Grandma Rose for making us a special cake! We were so happy you and Mema came be a part in this glorious day.
Turner also got to "sample" his Gotcha cake! And by the look of that precious smile...I think he too is a fan of Grandma Rose's cake!
All of our family awaiting court! Can you tell we're on cloud nine!

Grandma & Grandpa kept Turner this weekend while John & I went to Claremore for our dear friends Adam & Mandy's wedding. It was a nice to spend a weekend with just John BUT we were both really ready to come back home to our little guy. Thank you Grandma & Grandpa for keeping me on my first overnight without both mommy & daddy. I had so much fun!

Turner's Great Mema & Great Grandma Rose.
Turner and his proud papa.
One blessed family.
Lolly & Pops, thank you so much for coming to spend Turner's Gotcha Day with us. It is one of the happiest days in our lives and we couldn't imagine it without you.
Don't worry...Turner didn't really eat a smores...okay, maybe a little taste of the marshmallow thanks to Lolly! John made us a nice little fire outside last night and we voted smores was a must! The weather was perfect to sit on the screened in porch, enjoying smores and a cozy fire!


Aunt CC stopped by on Sunday night to see her little man before she had to head back to teach in Wichita Falls.

YEAH TURNER! What a blessed day Gotcha Day is! I swear I need to make buttons or stickers for our kids to wear all day on their Gotcha Day!

So glad you all rejoiced in what a wonderful day it is when the world recognizes what we have known and felt for months...that this boy is yours forever!

Congrats you all!
