Ryan's Photos

Our sweet kids! Ryan is such a talented photographer--he captures Luke and Brenna best! Brenna is a spunky baby girl...unfathomable that she is about to be ONE--she is literally always happy and giggly! Luke is so much fun to talk with and is still into basketball, music, and trains! We have FUN!

Luke's 3rd Birthday Party:-)

We had so much fun celebrating Luke's 3rd Birthday with everything Thomas the Train!!! We love our Luke-he brings so much light and love into our lives--we are so very blessed he's ours!

Highlights of Summer 2010

Of course the BEST part of our summer was welcoming Brenna Joy into our family on June 23rd at 12:28pm!

Happy 4th of July!!!

We had fun being a family of FOUR on the 4th:)

It's a GIRL!!!!:)

We were SOOO excited to SEE our little baby yesterday and learn that SHE is a GIRL:) We love her already...what a little miracle from God! We only have to wait 4 1/2 more months until we can meet her!!! Luke and I took a trip to our "mall" today and I had fun buying some cute baby girl clothes that were 70% off...I got some great deals and lots of PINK:) We are thanking God for our baby girl:)

December

We had a GREAT Christmas:) Ryan had 6 DAYS OFF!!!!! (which in the world of college women's basketball that is unheard of--the longest Christmas break Ryan has ever had since he started coaching!:) It was the best gift to be all together for a whole week! Luke is 2 years old so Christmas was extra fun this year as he is talking more. Every time a package came to the house Luke would shout "presents" "open"!!! And every time Luke said "Merry Missmiss" it would melt our hearts! We traveled to Columbus on December 23rd for a fun Christmas lunch and dinner! Christmas eve and Christmas day we made lots of yummy traditional Christmas foods and just enjoyed being home! We are so blessed and look back on 2009 and see all the evidences of God's faithfulness and love! He has been so GOOD and continues to be every day! :)

October and November

The months are flying by! We started October in Michigan and had a really nice visit with my mom! I even was able to throw a fun baby shower for my best friend Jaci! Once back in Ohio, Luke and I enjoyed his weekly classes and activities!(Kindermusik and Wee Wigglers) We even took Luke to his first Volleyball game! Halloween was a LOT of fun and Luke got to trick or treat twice!!! In November basketball season started and we celebrated Luke's 2nd birthday...it was nice that Ryan's family could join us for that! Ryan turned 32 and we had fun celebrating his day as well! We had a really special Thanksgiving in Athens this year! Ryan usually has a basketball tournament over Thanksgiving so it was a treat to have him HOME and all to ourselves!!! Ryan's boss Semeka had us over for a delicious Thanksgiving feast--it was great to be with friends! We have so much to be thankful for!!! We also found out that we are expecting baby #2:) We are beyond thrilled and excited--what a blessing and answer to prayer! We are due late June! Enjoy the pics!
