Welcome

We set up our adoption blog so you can get to know our family a little better. I started blogging back in 2007 and have kept up with it over the years. At the end of every year, we print off our blog for that year and give it to Daniel's mom for her Christmas present. She keeps all of her children's yearly journals in a notebook that we will get back one day to pass down to our kids. I try to keep it up to date as much as I can.


When we decided to start the adoption process, I decided to make an identical blog for birth mothers to read. Everything that I write about my family on our personal blog, I copy it over to my adoption blog. I understand that an adoption profile only gives limited information about us and we want you to have the opportunity to really get to know who we are and what we like to do as a family. Our adoption blog will show you who we were even before we adopted our boys. Feel free to read as much as you want or click on the links up above!

Ski Trip 2010

This is a delayed posting but Laura told me I needed to get this posted before summer time...

In January my dad, brother, and I went on our annual ski trip. It is our one time a year that we get together just by ourselves, and can spend time with each other. We went up to Salt Lake City and went skiing for three days. We had an absolute blast. I'd love to write more, but I'm exhausted from a long day today. At least I will put some picture up.

Skiing down the slopes. Snow levels weren't very good the week before we got there, but we had three days of huge snow dumps. It was powder skiing the whole three days. It was very tiring, but lots of fun.

Dad and I. I guess I should have taken off my goggles so people can actually tell that it is me.

Brian and I.

Here I was trying to take a nice picture, and my brother is giving me bunny ears!

The final day with some on my cousins. They are all 6'6" or taller so they make us look like shrimps.
