When you have a minute, check out Cory’s new blog, HourChallenge.  He is blogging about his commitment to spend an hour each day to help in the fight to end extreme poverty.

I’ve been dropping hints that a new project is brewing but up to now I couldn’t say much about it. Well all that has changed! Enter letterpop! the new place to create stunning newsletters for any purpose – Christmas newsletters, invitations, family newsletters, school newsletters, church newsletters, business newsletters, just-for-fun newsletters or whatever else you can dream up.

Here’s the scoop. We’ve started another company and website. Letterpop! – the result of several months of planning and development – is our first creation. The site is in beta which really only means that we’ll be doing a lot of improvements over the next couple of months.
Here’s where you come in. We need your help. We’re giving away a FREE annual “Premium” account to our beta users (a $25 dollar value). Consider it a Christmas gift from us to you for trying out letterpop! and writing to tell us how you like it and how we can improve.

I guess the last thing worth pointing out is that we plan to provide lots more templates in the coming days / weeks / months. Including a few more for the holidays. So check back often and let us know if you’ve got a template idea.

This is probably my favorite photo from last weekend with John. As many of you know we’re getting together all of the paperwork and documents for our adoption to China.  One of the requirements is to send eight pages of photos that will be reviewed by the agency in China that will ultimately match us with our new baby girl!!!!

More to come on all of this in future posts.

Any exceptional photo of our family has been taken by my friend John Watson.  If you’re looking for a great photographer with a knack for capturing moments then I’d highly recommend John!

To see his work, go to our flickr page:

John is based in southern California and is available for photography sessions anywhere in the Los Angeles, Orange counties and surrounding areas.  San Diego if you beg!

Well I guess it’s finally time to chronicle the journey of our small, happy little family.  I don’t expect anyone will read this except a couple of friends who are savvy enough to get a feed when I update this thing every few months. 

I’d like to thank a few people before we begin… Thanks to John for setting this blog up, to Dave for encouraging me to write, to Crissy and my boys who will be my primary inspiration for these sporadically written posts.  And thanks to you if you are one of the few people who end up reading this.

Grace & Peace.
