And I will bless you. so that you will be a blessing" Genesis 12:2. Sunday, August 9, 2015. Good-bye Monterey, Hello Kailua! I figured I need to get this blog posted before we have to move again. It is always sad to leave a place you have called home for 2 1/2 years, but Monterey was extra sad for us. This was where we brought all three kids home. How many military families can say that? It was perfect for our family. So here goes the craziness. Get ready. March 24- pack out and keep all necessary items ...

I can't believe we are half way through February and that the twins will be here in April! It has been such a busy time full of planning (trying to), cleaning and preparing. Just this past weekend my amazing friends gave me the best baby shower to welcome our boys. I was definitely showered with gifts, prayers and kind words! This is what we think. Then Chris leaves on A...

And I will bless you. so that you will be a blessing" Genesis 12:2. Friday, November 14, 2014. Our Exciting News (times two)! Chris and I realized a while ago that after five years of not getting pregnant that we would probably never be and we were good with that. We were excited about growing our family through adoption. In fact, we were in the process of our second adoption when we found out this exciting news one Monday morning. Needless to say we were shocked and speechless! We are excited, anxious, ...

And I will bless you. so that you will be a blessing" Genesis 12:2. Tuesday, April 29, 2014. I have come to the conclusion that holidays are just more exciting with kids! It is so fun to see everything through their eyes and see their excitement. Even though Abram doesn't understand everything that is going on this year, it is so fun to make memories with him and to introduce him to our family traditions! I just love this sequence of pictures of Abe eating his first chocolate egg:. It took Abe awhile to ...

And I will bless you. so that you will be a blessing" Genesis 12:2. Wednesday, May 28, 2014. Flowers, Strawberries and Butterflies. Every season, I make a "bucket list" of things we want to see and do and I post it on our refrigerator. I never want to finish a season and say, "oh, we should have done this." So when Chris has a day off or a long weekend we try to check something off our list. This spring some things on our list were:. Take pictures with the purple flowers. And we have butterflies! We have...

And I will bless you. so that you will be a blessing" Genesis 12:2. Tuesday, October 29, 2013. A "Very Hungry Caterpillar" Birthday. I'll be honest with you. I've been planning this party since May. Literally. While we were waiting for Abe I did practically everything for the party except the food. I knew I had the time then, and I wouldn't once we brought him home. It was so fun to pull everything out last week. stuff I haven't seen in almost 6 months! I found Hungry Caterpillar. Of course the kindergar...

Here's just a few pictures of what we have been up to his first month home. Most of the mornings we stay home while Chris is at school. He's happy with his toys for a little while, after that I try to get creative with other things. :). Painting on the sidewalk with water and paint brushes. Big fan of Thomas the Train! He is a huge fan of play-doh! In the afte...

And I will bless you. so that you will be a blessing" Genesis 12:2. Friday, July 18, 2014. Chris had a two-week summer break between classes, so we decided it was the perfect time to make a road trip to Washington to visit his family. I was onboard because the two times I have been to Washington have been during the winter and I was looking forward to seeing some sunshine. Also, who doesn't love a 15-hour road trip with a toddler? Our first overnight stop in the exciting town of Weed, CA. On Sunday morni...
