Flashback Friday

This sweet boy was planned by God.

His parents could have un-planned him. But they didn't.
They got married.

Then had a bunch more just like him.

God is SO good!
Day 17 of the 40 Days For Life: 121 babies saved!!!

Look at Austin looking up and you and laughing at that goofy hat you had on. Sad to see what clothes we used to think were cool. I probably stole that outfit out of your room and wore it.

Austin has become such a such a sweet smart young man. I think alot of people can look up to you and see how you turned something you thought at the time was a mistake into this big loving family.; March 13, 2009 at 12:17 PM
Simply Blessed said...: I love this post. I can remember you in those overalls, and yes... they were so cute at the time! He has grown into such an amazing little man. I think you are a very inspiring example to young girls that yes... you can make the unplanned work. Even if it's not easy, which I'm sure at times it hasn't been. You and Justin are amazing parents and I admire you both fully. Yet another reason why you're so inspiring! xoxo; March 13, 2009 at 12:21 PM

Meet our family, we call ourselves the "Road Schooling Ryan's." We know how fast kids grow up and we want to make the most of these precious years with them. We gave up living in a traditional house to travel the US with them. We are making memories that we will remember for a lifetime. We are so excited to "roadschool" and know that we will all learn so much on this adventure. We are excited to see what God has planned for our family. We have been to 38 states and have helped out in organizations like, Save Our National Parks, Safe Haven Family Shelter, Sower Ministries, Habitat for Humanity, and Passport in time, which helps preserve history around the US and much more. We started our trip on Nov. 23rd 2009..... With 5 kids and a dog living in an RV traveling to many places...Let's just say, I could write a book but I'll blog for now. Enjoy!

We made it home safe after traveling to 38 states and over 20,000 miles in 1o months. We are enjoying this new season in life. Here's to a new adventure!
