I’ve been married to my high school sweetheart since 2003. Together, we have four amazing children, by birth and adoption.

After our parents picked us up at the airport, the drove us home – about a 3 hour drive. We arrived home to a house filled with our dearest, most favorite people. It was … absolutely priceless. Here are a few (ok, a lot) of the pictures that I am so incredibly thankful were captured...
I don’t have the brain power to write much more, but we are home and Dumpling is now a U.S. citizen. Praise the Lord! We are dirty, totally exhausted, and completely thankful. Our family and friends have wrapped their arms around us in so many ways, and it was indescribable to celebrate Dumpling’s arrival home...
