Visiting the Struckman Family

Jon and I made the decision that we just had to go and meet miss Emma Struckman, so we made the drive and we're so glad that we did. It was so great to meet her and to see the joy in Shane and Katie's eyes as they are completely smitten over their beautiful gift from God. Enjoy the following pictures, baby courtesy of Shane and Katie! :)

Saying goodbye

We had such a great time visiting with them and we're thankful they let us butt in on their time with her. :) It's sad to think how much she'll change before the next time we see her, but we're so thankful we got to see her the first few days of her life! We'll never forget it! Katie and Shane, we'll be praying for you guys, but have peace knowing that you make Christ the center of your marriage and your lives. We're always here for you!!
