Update: Congratulations to Sam and Lacey! They adopted a girl in August.

Sam grew up in a family with one sister and three brothers, in which he was the youngest. Sam was raised on a farm. They have sold the farm, but Sam is grateful for the experiences it taught him. We live close to most of his family and see them frequently. Sam is a very hard worker and has been successful in owning his own construction company. He also worked hard at building our home. We spent many hours together building our home. Sam likes his job because it gives him the flexibility to be able to spend a lot of time with his family.

Lacey grew up in a family with three other siblings. They get together often and enjoy each other’s company. Lacey loves being a stay-at-home mom. She loves learning new things and is often looking for a challenge. She loves being around family and friends and is a very social person. She can often be found at the park with the kids, her friends, and their kids. She has recently found a new love to run. She has even roped Sam into some races. But most of all, she loves nothing more than to ENJOY everyday she has with her family and watching them grow

Ali is 4 1/2 years old. She loves preschool and is looking forward to going to Kindergarten in the fall. She is full of attitude and personality. She loves playing outside riding her bikes and finding rocks. She is pretty "girlie" but enjoys playing with the many neighbor boys. She loves her brother more than anything and their bond is very special. She loves to be a part of his bed time routine and loves telling him "goodnight" and giving him "kissies".

Nic is full of love. He is the happiest kid I know. Many Strangers comment on his smile and how content he is. He loves to play with balls, trucks, or ride with his sister in their pretend car. He is very smart and LOVES to see his dad come home. He is a people person and often steals the hearts of many.

We are so grateful for him in our family and for the peace, joy, and happiness he brings to it. We are blessed to be called his parents.
