Update


We have had a lot going in the last few months. Well, really since May. I feel like we have been going non-stop since the end of May. We spent most of our summer traveling to see family and making preparations for the next school year. We really had a good summer and got to spend lots of time with family.
We also made some major changes to the BSU building at the Perk campus, which included lots of painting, removing wall paper, and redecorating. It was a lot of work and all of our free time in the summer went to the work that needed to be done at the building. I am so glad that all the work is done and I'm never taking wall paper down again! I didn't realize removing wallpaper is tough work!
We also made a big announcement this summer. We are adopting a baby! It's been a while since we first made our announcement, but I wanted to update our blog and be able to tell more of the details on here. We are really excited and looking forward to day that we get to meet our baby.
We took family pictures this summer and this is one of the pictures that we are able to take.


Just a heads up, you may see this picture on a christmas card too. So here are some of the details that we know. I'll share more about our story in later posts but for now I'll just share some of the major details that we know. We are adopting from Uganda. We have not specified wether we would like a boy or a girl. My thought process behind this was that you don't get to choose when you are pregnant, so why should I get to choose. We will be fine either way. We know that God already knows who our child is and we will get to meet him or her very soon. We have requested the age range of 3 months old to 2 years old. Our agency has given us a timeline of 9 to 15 months, but we know that any numbers of things could prolong our timeline. So, we are just praying that God protects us from those delays.
This is just some of the major things that happened this summer and I will be sharing more about our story at a later time. Check back in the next few days to read more about our story and where we feel like God is leading us.
