Delaney Mae

Well, it's been almost a week, but I'm finally getting around to posting some pictures of our newest addition! Delaney Mae arrived safely on August 9 at 1:38 p.m. She weighed 7 lbs. 13.6 oz. and was 20" long. First impressions have been that she looks a little different than the other two! The c-section went well and Delaney appeared healthy from the get-go. However, after about 2 hours of grunting in my room, Dr. Patron took her to the special care nursery for some extra oxygen. After about 24 hours, she was allowed to return to my room. We came home yesterday (Thurs.) at noon. Caiden and Cambry adore their little sister, and we often have to choose numbers to see who gets to hold her first!! Caiden, especially, has been a big help running up and down the stairs for things that I need. However, I'm sure the novelty of this will wear off soon! Thanks for all the support and encouragement from many of you over this past week. Enjoy the pictures!

Choosing Trust Over Fear

I have struggled with writing about the shooting in Hesston - in fact, I wasn't going to post anything about it.  However, for the sake of memories, I decided I should at least touch on it.  It does deserve a place. It just hit so close to home - particularly since Doug was directly involved.  Honestly, I sometimes feel guilty for struggling with this tragedy.  I wasn't there, I didn't lose anyone close to me, and, although I know a few people who work there, I didn't know any of the victims.  And I get to move on with my life with little disruption.  I feel like I am on the outside looking in.   But I guess that's okay.  I didn't have to be directly involved for this to touch me.  My heart is sad for the families of those who died, for those who were injured, for those who witnessed it, for my brother-in-law who will probably replay images over and over, for my sister and my niece and nephew who might sometimes wonder "what if?", for th...

NCAA Division 1 Volleyball Championships

Chelan and I took Delaney to Kansas City for the championship game of the NCAA Volleyball Tournament - a birthday gift given to her in August. What a cool experience! From posing with the trophy to testing her vertical (6th place for all girls who tried!), to watching the match between Texas A&M and Kentucky, to a real life reindeer in the arena, we had a fun day!

Merry Christmas!

                                          Yea, Lord, we greet Thee, born this happy morning Jesus, to Thee be glory given Word of the Father Now in flesh appearing O come, let us adore Him O come, let us adore Him O come, let us adore Him Christ the Lord! We enjoyed a very relaxing (and strangely warm) Christmas!  The church Christmas Eve program was back in-person (although the kids had recorded their parts early), and we were back at my parents' house afterwards - much different than last year when we met via Zoom.  The only strange thing this year was the weather - mid-70s on Christmas Eve and just slightly cooler on Christmas Day.  We actually ate our lunch outside on Christmas Eve!  We waited until the 28th to celebrate with Chelan's side of the family - minus the CA crew.  Christmas Eve lunch on the deck! gift cards are hard to get to when they are trap...
