Date Night

It's often difficult to make one-on-one time special, when you always have one-on-one time. Recently, Matthew and I decided to be intentional with date night, wanting to make them more than just a regular night eating out. Last night we were able to do something we haven't done in awhile, play mini golf! We started the night with a nice dinner down town and then went to our local mini golf for some good laughs. I am by no means good at golf or mini golf for that matter, but getting to be silly and change up our normal routine made the night extra special. We won't discuss how badly Matt beat me. During the ups and downs of our adoption journey it has been important that we lean on each other for support. Allowing the challenges to bring us closer and not further apart. We look forward to many more date nights and maybe another round or two of mini golf. Who knows, maybe next time I'll win!

Love,


LeAnne

Family

                                                                         (LeAnne's Family-Christmas 2021)  Family is a large part of our lives and a huge reason we continue on our adoption journey. Our biggest desire in adopting and growing our family is giving a child the love of family we were both blessed to experience. Growing up in a large family definitely had its challenges, but I would not change it for the world. Even though we all have busy lives, we make getting together a priority. I have especially enjoyed watching our nieces and nephews grow over the years and how close they have all become. My youngest sister has even started a tradition of hosting "cousins camp" each Summer. The past couple Summers all 17 kids, ages 18 to 4, spend a few days at her h...

LeAnne

  Get ready to learn all you ever wanted to know about me and more!!         Starting with the obvious, my name is LeAnne, I am 33 years old and work as the clinic manager for a family practice office. I grew up in a large family with six siblings, three older bothers an older sister and then a younger sister and brother. I was born in Southeast Missouri and lived there until my family moved to Northeast Arkansas when I was seven. We then moved to Central Arkansas, where I currently live, when I was 11 years old. My dad is a Baptist minister so faith and family where large parts of my upbringing. Growing up in a large family, we had fun organizing our own softball or kickball games and getting to take family vacations. I always enjoyed traveling back to Missouri; spending time on my Grandpa's farm, playing with cousins and even catching a Cardinals game here and there. One of our most adventurous vacations was the Summer before I went into the fourth grade....
