Twelve years ago in faraway Minnesota, this baby boy was born who absolutely changed our lives forever.

Friday was my 63rd birthday.

On February 10, just before I left for Africa, my sister Barb and I were blessed to celebrate our precious Mama's 84th birthday with her.

Krew was born during the middle of a snowstorm six years ago.

Ten years ago, God gave our family a special gift when Kaden was born.

My dear friend Peggy celebrated her birthday this week.

We now have two 7-year-olds in our family!

My dear friend Brenda celebrates her birthday today!

Our sweet little Juni-bug celebrated her 4th birthday last week.

Our very own Sulphur Springs Christian Church's 5th Annual Summer Shindig was a wild-but-fun celebration!
