Stephen has some great co-workers who love to dress up for the holidays. This year was no different so when St. Patrick's Day rolled around, Stephen pulled out all of his green goodies and everyone got to dress up. I told him that they look like they're about to drop the album of the summer! We decided that the name of their group was Ms. B + the Blarney Boyz. They may not have a lot of musical talent, but at least they look good! :)

Favorites

We love family holidays together! We’re so lucky that our families live close so we’re able to see & spend time with them often.

One of Stephen's favorite musicians is Jimmy Buffett. We try to see him whenever he comes to town.

Alex loves old photos. She has a few boxes of them and she considers them some of her most prized possessions.

Alex really enjoys cooking. She's always trying a new recipe and fine tuning her skills in the kitchen.

Stephen loves being a teacher & being silly with his students. He always knew he wanted to be a teacher when he grew up - that, or play for the NBA.

Alex loves UNC basketball - especially their mascot, Rameses.

" When we found out Stephen and Alex were deciding to pursue adoption our hearts were overjoyed for them. Adoption has been heavy on my heart for quite some time and I have been so blessed to get to watch this journey unfold for them. I have no doubt the they will be wonderful parents. No doubt that their child will grow up in a home where they know they are loved and understand their worth. No doubt that they will do everything in their power to give their child every opportunity but also to teach them the value of hard work. No doubt that their child will be nurtured- physically, mentally and most importantly spiritually. There is no doubt their child will be deeply, selflessly loved, as my husband and I have had the privilege and blessing of having them love our own sweet daughter long before she was earth side. But more importantly, Stephen and Alex understand the sacrifice and magnitude of what is being entrusted to them by the birth mother. They understand that they will go home arms full, and she will not. They will rock that sweet babe to sleep, and she will not. Adoption is not possible without a great sacrifice and so they enter this chapter of parenthood sorrowful, yet rejoicing. You will not find another pair of parents more humbled and thankful for the sacrifice being made here. As they enter into this season of answered prayers and fulfilled promises, they do so with gratitude, humility, and thankfulness no words could ever express. "
