WELCOME TO OUR WEBSITE (current as of 6/5/04)

E-mail us - we want to hear from you!  We have a new email address.

COMING SOON: A New Website!      I'm having bittersweet feelings as I write this and realizing the end of an era. We started this website as a way to keep in touch with family and friends when Thad and I got married and started our adventures with the Army.  Now, the Army is over and we've been settled in Albuquerque, NM for over a year.  This website has been such a major influence in our lives and we hope it was in yours.      There have been so many changes since we started this website in 1999 when we lived in San Antonio, TX.  Since then, we have lived in 5 cities in 4 states.  We've met such wonderful people along the way.  The biggest changes have been making Thad and I into more than just a couple.  First we adopted Anka in April of 2000.  Then the next year came Braedin.  And recently in December of 2003 we added Kian to our family.      We've also seen some technical difficulties regarding the website maintenance.  We installed a completely uncecessary interent security software called Norton Internet Security (we do not recommend it) and it affected us being able to efficiently edit the website and keep it current.      However, I am feeling excited because the writer in me finally will be able to end this series (we ran out of room almost 15MB) and begin a new one - which I'm sure the sequel will be better than the first! Thanks for caring and we appreciate your thoughts and prayers along the way.

With love, Thad, Wendy, Braedin, Kian and Anka
