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!

Sunday at Missouri Botanical Gardens
















Saturday night after we met Tom at the motel, we went out to eat with the Elrich's and Cornwell's. It was a fun night remembering all the crazy and bizarre times in the Ukraine. It was also fun seeing the three kids together again for the first time since the orphange. Sunday morning, Bryan, CJ, Elizabeth and I went swimming and then we all headed to the Missouri Botanical Gardens (The Cornwells had previous plans for the day). That place is absolutely beautiful!!! It was the first time any of us had ever been there but would love to go back again.
