WOW...I can't believe how long it's been since I've updated this blog! Shame on me. :0) I guess that's what happens when you have TWO kids instead of one. Things are going very well for those of you still checkin' us out. Sophie is now 13 months old and Hannah graduated from Kindergarten last week. My...how time flies. I hope to be better about updating...here are a few pix to tide you over.


Until then...

Meeting Josh Wilson...

Last week we got to meet Josh Wilson and his wife Becca when they were traveling around Florida with our local Christian radio station. It was an honor and priviledge to meet them both. They are so down-to-earth and such a loving couple. I got a GREAT picture with Hannah and Josh and wanted to share it.

And now for the beginning of the story..when I was in HARD labor with Sophia...at about the 20th hour~ I was so ready to throw in the towel. I was discouraged and feeling like the pain would never cease. As I sat in the rocking chair, I heard these words on my ipod:

Would you dare, would you dare to believe
That you still have a reason to sing
Cause the pain that you've been feeling

Can't compare to the joy that's coming

So hold on, you gotta wait for the light

Press on, just fight the good fight

Cause the pain that you've been feeling

Is just the dark before the morning

Those words got me through..they gave me hope and made me dig in my heels and give it all I had. Thanks Josh..for being obedient and for writing these words. They really helped me through a very difficult time!

Until then...

Help Bring Hudson home!

Our travel buddies (who we traveled to China with in 2006) are on their way back to adopt their 3rd child (that makes SIX kids all together). We are THRILLED for them and want to share about an awesome fundraiser they are doing to help with the costs. Click here to see the AMAZING things they are giving away. Please consider helping this beautiful family that has so much love to share with another child. It's important to remember....some people are called to adopt and others are called to support them. Let's help bring Hudson home. :0) Thanks friends!

Until then...

Happy Anniversary

Happy 13th Anniversary to my husband, my friend and the father of my girls...I love you very much Pete and am so blessed that we have you in our lives. I am so happy that God let you walk into my video store 17 years ago and that I had the courage to "stalk" you at Winn Dixie until you got the nerve to ask me out. :0) You are a wonderful husband and an outstanding daddy to our Hannah Joy and Sophie Grace. When I watch you with them, my heart just melts. Thanks for all you do to make our family so happy. 13 down and many more to come! Love you babe!
