Overdue Blog Entry

It's been a month since our last blog entry, but nothing has changed. Unfortunately. We don't have anything to report on our home study, or the adoption process. We are getting very discouraged. But, we may have one last trick up our sleeves...don't count us out yet! Things may be changing, and when we find out more information, we'll clue you in! I don't want to count any chickens before they hatch, so that's all the information I can give right now.

Just an update on the two of us... Since I have last blogged, there have been a lot of events. My friend, Amanda and her sister Stephanie, ended up with a couple of extra tickets to Wicked, so my sister, Jo, and I took them off of their hands. The show was absolutely awesome! It was at the Fox Theater in Atlanta.

Then, just a couple of weeks later, we were on our way to Atlanta again for the New Kids on the Block concert! What a great show! All of us were hoarse afterward. Believe me, I have love Donnie forever and you will think my opinion is biased, but it was the best show that I have ever seen (and I have seen some good ones-- Janet Jackson, Celine Dion, Prince). Hands down, it was the most energetic crowd that I have been a part of!!

Then there was Halloween! As usual, we have a big pot of chili for dinner after the trick-or-treaters were gone. We have 143 kids this year!! It was a good time for all of us... and lots of good snack foods too!!

Yesterday, we decided to put up one of our Christmas trees (yes, just one for now). We put up our black tree-- our newest addition to our stockpile of trees. We bought it last year after the holiday season, and it is absolutely gorgeous!! Special thanks to Yuko for making the bows-- she saved the day.
