The moment family with two adopted children greet FIVE newly adopted siblings at the airport...saving them from being split up in foster care

This is the heartwarming moment that five young adopted siblings greet their new family at the airport - and break out into smiles from ear-to-ear.
Benjamin and Adrienne Donner have taken in Abby, Jerry, Christine, Andrea and Tammy because they could not bear the thought of them not being able to grow up together.
The five kids arrived in Salt Lake City from Oregon yesterday all wearing T-shirts with 'Team Donner' printed on them and calling out for their 'mom and dad' who promptly took them to their new home for a party.

Having already adopted two children, Brighton, six, and Brandon, four, as infants, the Donners swelled their family from four to nine with the help of Northwest Adoption Exchange and Family for Every Child.
'We knew we wanted to grow our family,' said Adrienne Donner who endured eight years of fertility treatments and failed adoptions before taking in her first two children

The five brothers and sisters, aged between six and 12 will now not be split up thanks to the Donner's, who are Mormon and have developed a commitment to adopting older children.

'We've been advocates of adoption for many years,' said Benjamin Donner to the Deseret News
'It's like everyone wants a baby. That's the big desire out there. But the older kids get forgotten.'
Working with the two adoption groups to adopt older siblings, the Donner's traveled to Oregon to meet the children who were split between two foster homes over the summer.
Bonding, the Donner's knew that these were the children they could give a home to and waited patiently for their arrival in Riverton, Utah.

'We think they are amazing. But at the same time, how many options are there out there to be adopted at the same time?' said Benjamin Donner.
'Would they have had to be split up and have gone to different homes?
'Just that kind of thought doesn’t sit well.'
Once thinking their house may have been too big for four people, now believe the home is going to be perfect filled to the brim.
'We’ve been blessed with a big house that we kept feeling like ‘this is too big for the four of us, maybe we should downsize, or whatever,’ said Adrienne.
'Instead the Lord blessed us for the ability to fill it up.'
