We finally CLOSED !

Together with the hard work and dedication of all of those involved with the sale of this house, along with your prayers, we were able to buy this beautiful house, July 15th. I can't begin to thank you Debbie, you were my rock and the little voice in my heart that kept reminding me to stay positive and strong. You knew from the very beginning that we would close no matter what, you never doubted it for a second. Brenda, thank you for sending us to a wonderful realtor who treats her clients like family. Coldwell, is extremely lucky to have a pair like you two on their team. Rhonda, what can I say. You were truthful and loyal from the get go. You told me like it is and never backed down. Thank you for fighting the good fight for us. You are a very strong and determined woman. Our thanks will never convey how grateful we are to all of you for making our dreams come true. WE DID IT ! ... Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible." Matthew 19:26
Love,
The Riries (John, America, Sebastian, and baby Ririe)

This past week was an extra special one, for John not only turned 28, but he got to celebrate his first Father's Day, as a "father of two." Last year he was so proud to have celebrated Father's Day as Sebastian's dad and it means the world to Bash and I that John takes such pride in calling Sebastian his son and being his father and giving him fatherly love. I knew John would be a wonderful father because he had a wonderful teacher, whom I'm sure is so proud of his son, smiling down on him from Heaven and watching over our baby. John is a remarkable man that we are blessed to have in our lives and be able to call him "DAD". I'm sure everyones heard me call him dad too once or twice. hahaThank you John for all that you are and all that you do. We love you !America, Bash, and Craisin

Thank you all for coming to see John off to Houston! We are so blessed to have all of you in our lives who love and support us. John has expressed to me how much he loves being a part of our family and how welcome you all make him feel. Thank you also for indulging my parents in singing "HAPPY TRAILS" to John, that was fun!
