I felt a little like Scrooge in “The Christmas Carol”, as I went through old Christmas pictures remembering the memories of Christmas’ past. It feels like such a stark contrast to the Christmas of present. We have been so blessed and such great memories and adventures have been shared since Hannah’s birth.

It was her debut, her shining moment on stage. Last Sunday Hannah was asked to take part in the Christmas Program at church. We weren’t sure if she was going to actually do it, but when we arrived to the church (after LOTS of talking with her about it) and she saw her other friends [...]

We are definitely making the [...]

We are so thankful that we had such a great trip back to Aberdeen!
It was a seamless travel day!!! Hannah slept 3+ hours on the long trans-Atlantic flight and DIDN’T throw up even though the flight was quite bumpy (which breaks our record). She was such a trooper!
I must admit that it felt [...]

We took Hannah sledding one morning while we were staying with Kent’s parents. What a blast! I was amazed at how daring she is, and that she is willing to try ANYTHING! (She gets that from her Daddy!) We decided to pry her from her sled when we noticed that her [...]
