Merry Christmas! Here is the whole family meeting Santa.
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care....

Well - it looks like Santa came for all three of our kids! They had so much fun opening their stockings and were very patient to get to their presents under the tree.

Our whole family standing in front of our Christmas Tree in sunny Arizona. So weird celebrating Christmas with no snow!

November 2009 - It's a GIRL!!!!

Jacob thought cutting the turkey on Thanksgiving Day with Dad was really cool!

Ashley Lynette was born on November 30th. She joined our family through adoption on December 1st. We love and will forever be grateful to her birth mother. We love Ashley so much! What a beautiful baby!
