Local Stories

Family opens its home to another child: Jade is 14 months old and has the face of a cherub. Her cheeks are so full, she has creases under her eyes because there's nowhere for that chubbiness to go. Her eyes are big and such a dark brown you can't make out where the pupils are.

From China, with love: It's hard to imagine that two families could be so similar. The Bridwell and Van Allen families of Kalispell each have a 10-year-old son, middle daughters a few years younger, and a 4-year-old son. And now both families have 11-month-old daughters. The similarities in their older children are simply coincidences. But the parallel traits in the new daughters of Jason and Kimberly Bridwell and Michelle and Kenny Van Allen are the outcome of bundling adoption applications.
