Beach Fun

We took a short weekend trip to Myrtle Beach this past weekend.

It was Aiden's first time to see the ocean. He was thrilled! He

lovedeverything about it. He was beyond excited when he

caught some little fish in a net. Shaelyn caught some fish too and

even some crabs. We were glad to be able to take a trip to the beach

even if it was only for a couple days.

Happy Father's Day

Father's Day use to be one of the hardest days for me. Harder

even than Mother's Day. I use to feel such guilt that Rob did not

have a child and couldn't be recognized along side all the other

Fathers at church on Father's Day. I often wondered if he would

have chosen a different mate had he know the outcome. Well today

I can honestly say that I look forward to Father's Day. The pride

that shows on Rob's face when he is around his kids is priceless!

He loves them so much and they adore him! He is such a good

Daddy and I know he feels that same way I do. Neither of us

would change the outcome of our journey to parenthood even if

we could. God knew exactly was we needed! Happy Father's Day

Rob! Our kids are blessed to call you Daddy!

Surprise Trip to Ohio

Shae and Aiden with Grammy and Grampy

Aiden LOVES his Grammy!

Our family at Sharree's graduation.

Our niece graduated from High School last weekend so we decided

to make a "surprise" trip to Ohio for the graduation. It wasn't a

surprise to everyone, just to Rob's Mom and Dad. They were also

in Ohio for the graduation, from New York. To say they were

shocked would be an understatement! Our visit was just for a

few days but we had a terrific time! We are so very blessed to

have such a wonderful family!
