now i have no excuses....

the last thing that chris and i (and let's be honest...i) have to do is put together a "scrap-book" that potential birth moms will see....we wanted some current pictures that were just "us" to put throughout the book....so, i enlisted the help of one of the best photographers that i know--lisa ruff of elite photography here in grand rapids. i grew up with lisa....and what's really cool about her is that she introduced me to chris one snowy day in college after the two of us (lisa and i) got into a car accident. that's a good story if you're ever interested! anyway, she's become such an amazing photographer and i would recommend her to anyone that needs any photography done ever......you'll just be blown away--check her out at elitephotodesign.com. she took these amazing pictures of chris and i and put together this slide show. so now that i have all these incredible pictures to choose from i have no excuses regarding why my scrap book isn't finished. i've got one week of christmas break left--it's time to get on it! (make sure your volume is turned up on your computer too....lisa didn't know this....but the song she chose to put with the slide-show is the jason mraz song that i heard right after we decided to adopt and i thought to myself....wouldn't this be a cool song to put with pictures describing our adoption process...and ending with pictures of our baby? such a cool coincidence!)
