Welcome to our family website.

This blog, which began as a therapeutic outlet during the wait for our daughter's arrival, morphed into a place to share feelings, ask for support, and flip through a virtual 'brag book' of photos. NOW, as we embark on our second adoption trek, please join us as we plan, pray, and travel again to the other side of the world to be united with the next piece of our family puzzle.

Peace & Blessings...Beth & Ron (and Hope too)

Cute as a bug!

Pre-Costume! "Daddy's Under My Spell" - Check out that braid!

Hope had a fabulous time last night. It didn't take long at all to get the hang of things. Amazing what a motivator candy can be. :)




Hope has been talking about Olivia coming non-stop for a week. She was so excited for this day. We started out with jack-o-lantern pizza and then got the girls geared up for a night on the town.













Here we go!

Hope is such an instigator right now. Can't you see the scheming in this photo? What do you think she's whispering in Olivia's direction?

Walking up to our first stop of the night. Olivia wasn't too sure about what to think. Some of those costumes are pretty scary. They didn't seem to phase Hope too much.

Are we having fun yet?

Friends - Dave & Amy with Olivia, Beth & Ron with Hope...& Olivia's "wonton," aka wand. :)

Olivia cooking with Ron when we got back - Those goldfish fried over the lantern flame are pretty tasty. MMMmmmmm...

Those are about the cutest trick or treaters I have EVER seen! The costumes are great. I love that the "birthday twins" have so much fun together - and that black and white pic of them giggling together is priceless - a framer for sure! Charlotte and Amelia also ride on the wagon together for Halloween. SO CUTE!

Happy Halloween Hope! Mom has been super stingy with my candy. I think she actually put some of my loot in the bowl to hand out the kids that came to our house! What gives?
