Stutzman family news...

After years of prayer, my sister-in-law and her family are trusting God and answering His call by... 

Adopting from Ethiopia!!  

I'm beyond excited and cannot wait to meet my new niece or nephew.  It's such an exciting time and I'm so inspired to see God working in their life!

You can read their story and follow their journey on her blog!  They've also started fundraising efforts and you can purchase super cute totes, clutches and wristlets to support their adoption.  I already bought a wristlet and I'm pretty sure I'll be getting a few more as gifts!  

Hope you are inspired and blessed by their awesome journey!

Mom's weekend in Napa...

I can't believe we leave for Washington in a matter of weeks!  It's crazy how fast this is all happening.  Fortunately, I had a few fun events on the calendar that were planned before we decided to leave.  I think it's God's way of making the move easier...that I'm able to see and have quality time with those I'll miss the most.  

One of the first stops on the "good bye tour" was a mom's weekend in Napa.  I was able to go with a few of my Las Madres friends that I've loved getting to know over the past year or so.  All of our kids are within a few weeks of each other, so they are a great source of support and encouragement as we tackle our first experience of mommy-hood together!

Our overnight in Napa is just what we needed.  A full day of wine tasting, a great dinner and an oh-so-needed trip to the spa this morning on the way home.  It was a trip I won't soon forget!
