Our First Post

We just got home from Forgiveness Vespers and got Thomas to bed. In spite of our sore legs (from too many prostrations!), we're trying to get a few more details squared-away before our trip on Tuesday. One of those details is this blog. We're going to try and post something on here daily during our trip, so be sure to check back. (And don't forget that "daily" will mean nightly for those of you here in the Central Time Zone. There is a 15 hour difference.)

Keep us in your Prayers!

I am so happy for you, the day has finally come! I am looking forward to hearing some of Thomas' reactions too if you can catch them in words. I cannot wait to meet Russell and Elliott (Have I spelled them correctly? I am never sure about how many l's and t's.). Be sure to keep us posted on the weather and the food, too! Godspeed!

Always remember to stretch before vespers you silly people. Always stretch before any workout. You will be glad you did. I do lots of butt stretches before church. It is worse if I do not get my normal pew that has become custom fitted. Much like Homer and his special groove in the sofa.
Safe journey to you both. Speaking of stretching enjoy the flight. Look forward to more news about all five of you.

Finally!!! We have been waiting for this day to finally come! Take lots of pics and maybe some video (you did find it didn't you?) The timing couldn't be better...we will all arrive on the same wonderful day. Ali's ready to change some diapers; Aunt Becky's ready to rock them to sleep. We just can't wait!
Love, Aunt Becky, Uncle John and cousins, Joey and Ali

This is such a great idea! How thankful I am at this moment for modern technology. What a gift to all of us to be able to share, via updates and pictures, in your incredible journey to Korea. Kiss those little boys for me when you get there!

Thanks for setting up this blog. It is nice to have a way to know what is happening. You are all in our prayers this next week. 3 boys is a wonderful thing. I know from experience!!

Love, Ingrid

I cannot begin to tell you how excited we all are for you! Expanding a family is always a special time, but to expand not by one, but by two beautiful boys! What an incredible blessing!

We cannot wait to see pictures of your trip and meet your sons.

We are SO happy for all 5 of you! What an answer to prayer this is. We'll read your blog with eager eyes every night, and can hardly wait to welcome the next set of twins into our parish family. I look forward to sharing more of the parenting adventure and saga with you!

Much love,
Lori, Robert, Nina and Nicole
