The Gift of You

I didn't give you the gift of life, but in my heart I know.
The love I feel is deep and real, as if it had been so.
For us to have each other is like a dream come true!
No, I didn't give you the gift of life, life gave me the gift of you.

About Us

About Us
Hello! We are Bob and Trish Akers from Indiana. We are in the process of adopting a daughter, Emmaline Catherine, from China. We have a log in date of December 8, 2005, and are hoping to get our "referral" in November 2007. It's been a long journey, but we are so excited to be this close! ****************************************************************** Update: We have obviously adopted our daughter, so this is now the Akers Family website. We will periodically be posting pictures of our family and newest adventures.

Zoo Boo





We went to the Indianapolis Zoo this weekend. They had a special Zoo Boo event where all the kids were dressed up in costumes and the staff was giving away candy. It was such a beautiful weekend. Of course, Emmaline went as a cow (which is a family tradition) and Jackson went as a spider.

Trip to Florida




Trish and I went on holiday to Florida this week - Deerfield Beach, located just north of Miami/Ft. Lauderdale area. The weather was beautiful - in the mid-80's, but a very strong breeze the whole time kept things very nice.

Getting Caught Up






I know, I know...we've been horrible about posting, so here's a bunch of pictures from over the summer. A trip to the zoo, the 1st Annual Indianapolis Chinese Festival, and simply hanging around the house. Hope everyone had a great summer, but we're all really looking forward to the Fall Festivities!!!
