XinLings Colorado Adoption Ceremony - October 2002


        It's final!

        In October 2002 XinLing and Mommy drove back to Colorado for our court date in Fort Collins, Colorado. In this ceremony, The State of Colorado recognized XinLings adoption held in China, and issued her a new birth certificate with her new name and an adoption decree from the State of Colorado. This was a very special day for our family and the Judge was very nice and let XinLing sit in his lap and play with his toys. He also gave XinLing a newly minted, uncirculated 2002 quarter to keep as a souvineer. If you look closely you can see it in XinLings left hand.
