To Our Little One,


We're not sure if your physical creation has even begun, and yet you have been part of us for such a very long time. Our family is full of joy and love still the empty spot is real, just waiting for you to make us whole. Our quest for you has been intense. There have been several heartbreaks along the path. More powerful than the heartache though is the hope we feel. We have faith that you will find your way into our arms. We can't wait for that incredible moment when we will first get to look into your beautiful eyes. We pray for you unceasingly. Every night your brothers pray that someone will give us a baby. Please come to us soon--we need you and love you forever.
Love,
Mommy and Daddy

Brycen and Daddy Hit the Slopes




On Friday Lance to the day off work to take
Brycen skiing for the first time. Brycen did a
great job--he is now just two skills away from
being a level three skier. Lance took lots of
pictures through the first half of the day, but
sadly he lost his camera later that day.
Luckily the ski school took this picture.


Brycen and Lance both came home
exhausted, but ready to plan their
next ski day. It is so much fun
to watch our children discover
new things. We are grateful to
be in a postion where we can
expose them to different things
and then let them pursue their own
interests.

Storytime


Daddy tells Zac and Brycen a story until Mommy
finishes getting ready for church. From their big
smiles I'm guessing it was a good story!

Trains, trains, and more trains!

Brycen and Kim's Dad share a passion for model trains. Last weekend we went to a local train show, where vendors from all over come to show off the latest and greatest in the world of model trains. The boys just loved it, and so did Pappa. It is adorable to watch a grown man and a small child's share such exetiment.

Happy New Years



We rung in 2008 playing games and eating
way too much yummy food with some friends.









Some people didn't quite last long enough to make
it to the mid-night celebration.






Zac stayed up to ring in the New Year for the first
time in his life and then slept in latter than ever before.

Happy New Years!
