About Us
- Tim and Tanya
- We moved to Arizona 8 years ago from Washington State. We have been married for 18 years and have two beautiful biological children: Austin (14) and Kailey (13). We decided to build our family through adoption almost 3 years ago. Our whole family is incredibly excited to go to China and bring Ying home! We want to thank everyone for their prayers and support over the past couple years! We love you dearly!

It looks like you are all having a wonderful time. You are making memories that will last you a lifetime. I look forward to meeting Kaitlyn sometime next week. See you then,

How absolutely incredible this all is! Doesn't it feel terrific when you hear that the paperwork passed?? Whoo-hoo!
Ok - the dinner and dancers. Uhm... what can I really say? Ya'll made a memory like NO OTHER!!
How we praise God that you have treasured your time in China. These are memories that are forever. Flying away is bitter sweet, for sure. But just wait and see all of the new memories you will make.
Kaitlyn is going to continue to learn so many more words. Her whole world has been turned upside down, and listening to English has got to be exhausting for her. Can you imagine trying to learn a lot of Mandarin??Your family has exactly what it takes to help her out on this journey. We'll keep praying and you keep doing what you do best - loving on her.
Can you believe it? You really went to China!! You really have three kids!!
Who would have guessed that when we met at our orientation a while back, we'd be watching our families live out the miracle of adoption?
Thank You, Lord.
And, in just a couple more days, you're gonna be home. For good. Your forever family. Praise God.
Love,
Col
PS Your daughters look absolutely stunning in their silk dresses.
And your son? He's clearly THE man on the dance floor!! He's got it goin' on!!!
