Our beautiful Anna 

And our tiny Toria

Our cute little peanut - Madalyn

Justin enjoying taking the girls for a ride in the truck he got for Christmas.

Drivers just seem to get younger and younger these days... Lol

Samuel with Victoria in her high chair.

Yes, those are her feet sticking up there. Crazy flexible girlie.

Three blue diapered booties.

Madalyn signing "Daddy"

Daniel and his strikingly beautiful blue eyes.

Happy girl

Samuel doing his school work with a helper.  So sweet and such a loving big brother.

Justin of course had to have his pic taken when he was first learning how to write his name.

I just love this one.

Dillon and Justin

We are just so blessed, and it never ceases to amaze me at what God has done for our family and with our family.
  
We are so blessed to have 9 beautiful children, and Lord willing, soon to be eleven!!  (I know some people don't understand why on earth we would want to keep adopting when we already have so many kids, but I will save the answer to that for another post).  We are so blessed that God is providing once again for us to bring these 2 girls home!
  
We are so blessed to have a nice home, food in the fridge, big 'ol cars to drive, and so many things that really are just extras (wants) and not necessities in this life.  We are thankful for these little things, but we also know that if we lost them it wouldn't really matter.  As long as we have our faith in God and each other, nothing else matters.  There have been some things happening in our little section of the world lately that have just flat out given us a change of perspective on life. Let's just say it has been a big reminder of what is important and what we are supposed to be doing during this short time we've been given here on earth.
    
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.  Philipians 4:6
