Pyper

I have been away from my blog for way too long. However some recent happenings have brought me back. Let me fill you in on a couple of things. First off, we moved to Wyoming Easter weekend. Joseph was offered a position as the Branch Manager at Big Horn Federal Savings Bank in Lovell and we accepted. It was very out of the blue, but we are loving Wyoming and we are grateful for the new opportunity. Secondly......we have been sooo blessed to be able to adopt a beautiful baby girl! Words cannot adequately express the joy she has brought into our lives. I promise I will fill you in on all the details at a later date. For now here are some pictures of our precious daughter, Pyper.
(Sorry, I put the pictures in the wrong order)

Pyper
Landon (proud big brother) all dressed up for church
Snuggles with daddy.
Landon meets Pyper for the first time. He picked out a special stuffed animal for her and was so excited to give it to her.

All bundled up in the hospital.



Just born, weighed in at 6lbs 11oz, and 19 inches long.

I will return with more later. Also I will be making this blog private so leave your email address in a comment if you would like an invite. :)
