Boo?

It's the same story every year - Tuesday puts on her halloween best and enthusiastically greets all the trick or treaters - and when it's all said and done she goes into post halloween depression sadly looking to the door and then to me as if to say "Where'd all the kids go?"

As the trick or treaters trickle away, so have my blog posts...I'm incredibly behind but I will catch up. Stay tuned for some swappy goodness, a plumeria update, vacation fun and more!

UPDATE 11/1: Told you so...here she is the next morning...won't the trick or treaters come back, puleeeeeeaaaaaaassse?!?!?!

18 Months LID

We have been logged in at CCAA and waiting for referral for 18 months - a year and a half. Still guessing we will receive referral sometime between fall 2008 and spring 2009 as referral batches continue to creep through LID dates.

October Stork Alert

Congratulations to all families logged in November 26 through November 30, 2005 on your long-awaited referrals!

5 days of referrals means there are now 140 LID days ahead of us to be matched. Rumour is that not only was this a small referral batch in terms of number of LID days included, but in numbers of children finding homes. Sad. Really, really sad.

Happy 4th Anniversary!

We celebrated our 4th anniversary in new way this year - with dinner in San Juan, Puerto Rico and a vacation to the island of Dominica. It was enchanting and I'll share more in comnig posts. 4 years ago, we said our vows on the beach in Hawaii and are still holding hands...I love you honey! Happy Anniversary!
