Happy 1 Year Anniversary

A year ago today we flew to Guatemala to bring Jake to his forever home! I often look back on our life a year ago and can't believe we made it through the transition!! At the time, it didn't seem unreasonable. Hectic? YES! But we were on a mission to unite our family.
I am amazed everyday at what a handsome, sweet little boy we have and I feel so incredibly blessed that somehow, from thousands of miles away, this precious peanut found his way into our family. I often think about how many times, while we were in Guatemala, a local would say to me, after realizing we were adopting him and taking him back to the U.S., "he is very lucky." It's been exactly a year having Jake as our little-BIG-boy, I know now, they had it backwards.

We love you Jakey!!

Thanks Daddy! This was everything you said it would be....and MORE!

Our trip to Wisconsin was complete when Pete and they boys attended a Packers practice with Grandpa and Uncle Dave and Abby. The boys loved running around chasing each other. The weather was beautiful so it made the day just perfect!
