Our 24th Live Stream Update: It was a big week in the Besel household. We’re getting a puppy AND we went home with a new car! It’s fun to think that someday Baby Besel will interact with both puppy and car We might not be able to control the timeline of adopting our human baby, but we are able to have control over these . Puppy (no name yet) is a border collie, we will welcome her into our family on the 6th! Car is a Chevy Bolt, all electric!

We’re camping again! This time we got out on the water on Lake Shetek for an icy but refreshing dip . No livestream today because there is very poor internet at the campground (Tucker is currently parked down the road from camp typing this post ) Have a great week everyone!

Our 19th Live Stream Update: This week we celebrated our family being fully vaccinated (and Easter)! We haven’t had a ‘normal’ family hangout in over a year, so we all were feeling the blessing of each other’s company this weekend We used the occasion as an excuse to bust out our camper that we purchased in December...it was chilly but a great experience. No big news for adoption, but a huge milestone for our family.

Our 17th Live Stream Update: This week we decided to do a "Cooking with T&T" episode! We have a couple important updates: 1) we are 3rd on the profile waiting list (yay!) and 2) we got some states that reported in! We hope to get some more this week too! Check out our take on some Instant Pot Chili...it ended up a little spicy and watery, but we had fun making it together...even if it wasn't the best chili we've made.
