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)

July Weekend

The summer of 2009 was the summer of parades and local community fun. Here is a snapshot of one of our July weekends...

St. Croix County Fair - July 25, 2009
Walking to the fair with Great-Grandma Hoot!


The pony ride she HAD to go on. She didn't like it much after about twice around.

The cows were a hit this year, especially since she had her friend from church to take her over for a pet. :)

Signing HORSE



Stillwater Parade - July 26, 2009
We had a blast with Amy and Olivia! The girls were adorable with a couple of cute hugs, dancing for attention, and collecting all their candy together.
Sucker Tongues


The Girls In Action



The Loot




Two of the Sweetest Girls In Town

After the parade we went down to the riverfront for a 'nutritious' dinner and some run around play time.

OK everyone - Blogger invitations should have been sent to the addresses you provided. Please leave a comment here to let me know that you are IN. :) This whole process is a little foreign to me, but I'm hoping it all works smoothly. Can't wait to get a couple posts going now...as soon as I know the whole invitation process has been successful.

Thanks! Hope you're having a good week.
