Finally!!

We are back from Ethiopia and adjusting (most days:) to being a family of four. This is my first time to be online since being home hence the lack of updates and pictures. The Lord has graciously provided for our needs and we are thankful to be close to family and friends during this season of life. Here are a few pictures from the past 2 weeks. This is not the update I have been planning on doing but for now here is a taste!! This is pretty much what Nehemiah does all day!!


Our sweet Ezekiel enjoying his first experience at our favorite restaurant-Joe T's!!

The boys first time in the stroller. They seem to really enjoy the quality time, even in the TX heat.

"GOTCHA DAY"

It didn't go exactly as planned but still it was quite a remarkable day. Chris was on a later flight and was set to arrive just about the time we were to meet the boys, but then it was delayed several hours. My parents and I were going to meet him at our agency office, do some paperwork and then the boys were supposed to be brought to us. Well, we arrived at the office and as soon as I stepped out of the van...there was Ezekiel...and then Nehemiah! It was overwhelming to finally see them but then I was so conflicted as I just kept thinking that Chris wasn't there with me. We were all so shocked we didn't have the camera ready so that's frustrating but when Chris arrived we reenacted and have that on video and camera. YEA!!

I loved seeing Chris face as he first saw and held the boys for the first time.

After our Embassy appointment...thankful they were now ready to head to the US

Thank you all for your notes and prayers these past few weeks...months...years. Our hearts are overwhelmed and thankful to our heavenly Father for your love and support. Look forward to catching up with all of you very soon. We are so thankful to the Lord for these precious gifts...His love is great. More to come soon about these bundles of joy!

love,

CAEN
