1. Elizabeth's 1st Roller Coaster ride ~ The dragon...she's in the 3rd car from the front...holding on tight, looking none too happy, but afterwards she said she enjoyed the ride (but didn't want to do it again, lol!)
3. Mollie, the newest member of our family. She's 11 weeks old and already weighs 24 pounds. She's a typical puppy...chewing up everything in sight, but bringing lots of joy :-)
4. Elizabeth had went to the dentist earlier in the day, and now she is playing dentist with PaPa Joe..."Open wide PaPa!!"
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!
