The Stander - Then and Now

We finally got to bring the stander home!!! Woohoo!!! This is a very big deal! We were hoping that Ian would be able to be in the stander shortly after his hamstring lengthening surgery on Sept. 6, but it's been slow going! I won't go into all the details but suffice it to say that it's been a lot of work and we have a lot more work to do. However, it's here and we are persevering. Here is a picture of little Ian in Jamaica in his stander several years ago and ....

here he is today!

We feel very blessed to have been able to celebrate the birth of our Savior with so many family members. We would not have made it through this past year without the love and support of each of you.

Merry Christmas (a bit late) and blessings for the New Year!

Christmas - Part 1

The boys are back in school so I finally have some time to upload the Christmas pictures. Troy only had the weekend before Christmas off and that wasn't enough time for them to make the trip to Indiana so we rented a house on KY lake and we all congregated there. It was so much fun having everyone together!

This is a corner of the house and the view of the lake. The house sits on a point that juts out into the lake and is built to take advantage of beautiful views from all windows.
