Keep Your Eye on The Prize!

Family.
I love my family, for many reasons. They are my biggest supporters and greatest strength.  They are the ones that I feel most secure with.
Over the Thanksgiving holiday, they surprised Shaun and I with an Ethiopian baby shower.  To see all the excitement, support and joy for us meant more to Shaun and I than we can begin to explain.  It made this Thanksgiving a very special one. Everyone bought a children's book and wrote a sweet message to our baby that we will one day read to them.  I can't wait till the day comes and I can read every one of those children's books to our baby.  What joy that brings to me! :-)  The only thing that could of made this shower that much more special would of been to have my sister, Candis, there, but she was an intricate part of the planning, and that was awesome to know!
Here are some pictures that I want to share on this blog, as part of documenting our journey.

Absolutely surprised! 

Greatest mom and dad a girl could ask for. Love you.
