This cute outfit was given to her from Charlotte Baecker. I was going to take her to Wal-Mart to get her pictures taken (in this outfit and in her Christmas dress), when I realized they wouldn't be back until December 22nd and I wanted to get our Christmas cards in the mail before then (I knew I shouldn't have kept putting this off!!) Anyway...we came home and took the pictures here instead...they turned out just as good :-)
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!
