Bringing Lainey Home - In Photos

Our second trip to Ethiopia was incredible.  We experienced the culture, met amazing people who will always hold a special place in our heart, and spent our first week with our daughter!  Since time is a treasure more than ever now that Lainey is home and I feel I exhausted my journalistic energy our first trip, here is Trip 2: Bringing Lainey Home in Photos.

The Morgans with Efa, the Fitzpatricks with Bontu, and us with Lainey.  YWAM families at BeJoes Guest House.

Ty with L at the Thomas Center Orphanage.

Sweet Reunion.

Ahhhh. 


Many women carry these bushels on their back.

An amazing woman whose love for our daughter and love for Jesus were evident from our first trip.
