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!

Texas Thunderstorms

The other night it finally rained. It had been a while since we had gotten a nice thunderstorm. The boys weren't a huge fan of the thunder and lightning. They both sat on my lap for a good hour while the worst part of the storm passed. When Daniel got home, Talon insisted that he wanted to go outside in the pouring rain and he was not happy with us when we told him no. So we waited for it to stop lightning and then Daniel took them outside on the front porch to watch the rain fall.
