Welcome to our adoption story, which officially begins when we jet off to the Ukraine to meet our daughter, Elizabeth Marie, on Oct. 15th 2005. We hope to keep our family and friends up to date with our daily activities through this blog (stands for web log). We are very blessed to have wonderful support systems...our loving family, friends, and our church family. We want to thank everyone for their prayers and concerns since we began this process in August, 2004 and as we continue our journey.
Five Years Later...
We started this blog when we went to the Ukraine to adopt our daughter Elizabeth in 2005. Five years later we are loving life with our daughter (now 6) and our son, Chris (23). Tom continues to farm and I have the wonderful job of a stay-at-home mother and farm-wife. God has truly blessed us with two wonderful kids, a great new home, all while being surrounded by a terrific family, friends, and church family!

Our apartment building
We haven't learned how to post more than one picture at a time, so bear with us. This is a picture of the outside of our apartment. Most apartments look like this. I assure you it is much nicer and very comfortable inside. We are on the 3rd floor and we do have an elevator. We have not lost electricity since Monday, so that is good. We have always had plenty of hot water (knock on wood) and our apartment has plenty of cleaning supplies/vacuum cleaner to keep it clean. We aren't drinking the water, of course, so we buy bottled water and even use it to brush our teeth.
