Thankful

This year we are realizing how much we have to be thankful for.  It is so amazing to think that we have Hanna home with us.  Two years ago at Thanksgiving time was a turning point for me in saying I was ready to proceed with an adoption.  And now, here we are...2 years later with Hanna in our family.   It is so amazing how God takes us on these journeys, calls us to partner with him and then provides what is needed.   Here are a couple of pictures of our family.  We are so thankful for them!  

These photos were taken by our good friend Kate Aldrich who has her own photography business.She and her husband Brad recently adopted a little boy named Micah from Ethiopia.Check her out at www.katealdrichphotography.com/    

Hanna's walking!

She's been practicing a lot over the past few weeks and now she's just about got it down.   This week Hanna started really taking off, taking multiple steps at a time and with the greatest laugh and grin along the way.    Its the end of the world as we knew it...our baby is walking!
