Six Years in the Making!

Well, today was a LOT warmer than January 17, 2009.  Back then, it was a massive snow storm on a cold Saturday.  Vicki and I were driving in our truck (in 4 wheel drive most of the way) and could barely stay on the road.  We had a 2 hour drive ahead of us to witness the birth of our daughters.  Miya and Kira entered this world and our family six years ago today through the beautiful gift of adoption! We are forever grateful for their selfless birth family!

Well, since we are in Guatemala in January, we totally enjoyed the weather spent some serious time outside.  As we are preparing for the next team to arrive tomorrow, we got things ready, played games, did some school work, went out to Pollo Campero to eat, and even “enjoyed” a Barbie movie to cap it off. 

Our family is loud, wild, adventurous, crazy, lovable, and big.  We would not want it any other way!

The girls decided this year that they didn't want to share their birthday.  One wanted her party for breakfast and the other for supper.  But, when push comes to shove these two can't live without each other!  They are as different as day and night in almost every way but yet inseparable.

This relationship of Miya and Kira is parallel to our relationship with Christ.  We may not want to share our life with Him or just certain areas.  BUT, when push comes to shove, we need to be inseparable.



Happy Birthday loves and we look forward to this next year and where God will bring you!
