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)

Easter in Pictures

Coloring Eggs with Uncle Brian & Aunt Tami (4/3/09)




Easter Egg Hunt (4/11/09) - The hunt wasn't much of a hunt...just pick up a few eggs off the ground and turn 'em in for a baggie of candy. Oh well. We enjoyed the animals, face painting, and a few snacks in the company of good friends.

This goat just sneezed on her. ICK!



I think this one is funny. :)


Hope was showing off the bunny on her cheek after we got home.

We love sidewalk chalk this spring. Last year Hope was pretty indifferent, but we're almost out of it already this season.


Easter Sunday Sunrise Church Service (4/12/09) - Yes. We were at church at 5:45 for this special service. Hope did great. I tried really hard to prepare her the night before. I talked with her about how I was going to be coming in to wake her up early. I just made sure that I had everything done and I saved enough time to wake her and get her in her dress and out the door. We had a wonderful morning.

Hope's Easter dress was adorable! Oh what fun she had. We didn't color eggs cause when I wasn't home Olivia broke open the coloring kit box & lost everything! Oh well...next year!

Aw, look at your Hope, these pictures are just precious. As I was scrolling down, I kept saying in my head "This one's my favorite", "no, this one," "no this one...." - they are all great!

Such great pics of your family - and Hope's dress is so pretty like a princess. I love her long pigtails, too.
