~ THE PAULSEN PEOPLE ~

We are Dennis and Kris Paulsen. We've been happily married since February 18, 2000. We have two precious sons, and one super pup named Bella. Joshua, an only child until he was 6, has asked for a little brother ever since he could talk. We become licensed Foster to Adopt parents in 2006. On May 2, 2007 Dakoda came into our lives, and on Oct 12, 2007 he became our son. Having two boys is such a very special and amazing gift! We truly enjoy our lives together, as each day is a blessing.

Happy 4th of July ~

My two little ninja boys ... we practiced our awesome ninja moves before the baseball game

We went to see a Columbia Blowfish baseball game last night with Ron and Jennifer + Kameron and Todd and Michele. The Blowfish played the USC Alumni. It was a really great game.

We ran into our friends Ginny and David from Spring Valley Baptist church. Miss Ginny had a big surprise in store for Dakoda . . .

That's Dakoda, running the bases at the game chasing the mascot, Blowie. Dakoda ran as fast as he could after they announced his name. The crowd of 5000 people cheered him on. He was our little star for the night. He was so cute! Joshua got a big kick out of watching him and shouted out "that's my brother."

Ok, so he did run in the wrong direction ... LOL, but it was cute. They had to try to stop him as he kept on running after his lap around the bases was finished. He wanted to keep on running, and he did!

... until they stopped him that was. :)

Our friends, Ginny (who we sang in choir with) & David (who plays in the baseball league with Dennis on Saturday mornings)

His little buddy Kameron was enthralled.

He seemed to really enjoy the game, and wasn't afraid of the fireworks at all!

Our version of the "YMCA" song - we had so much fun!
