Beautiful

It's a beautiful day outside!  73 Degrees.  Blue sky.  Smell of cut grass in the air.  

I think we need to mow

The girls are outside having a picnic, eating a lunch that Alexis prepared all by herself.  They've been wandering around the yard looking for the perfect place to put their blanket, with the cat following along behind them.  

What is she doing with the binoculars??

My windows are all open and I know I'll have pollen all over the place by this afternoon, but I don't care.  It's too pretty to feel stuck inside when you have to be inside.  The field across the street is being mowed and it smells great.  The girls did school this morning and have more to do, but it's nice to have a break.  I'm trying to get a few things done in here, namely laundry.  Ugh.  :)

Blue skies and cut grass

In adoption news, the final draft of our home study report was sent to us this weekend.  We edited it and sent it back.  Hopefully it will be finished soon and we can start on the immigration paperwork.  The social worker said that the girls might have to have a TB test.  I'm hoping not.  I didn't see that in the list of things we had to do, so I didn't have it done while we were at the pediatricians.  I really don't want them to have to get stuck or for me to have to take them back for another appointment.

Great news about the bracelet sales!  Every year our church helps with a community carnival.  We help with the food and water sales, and the moonwalks, and anything else we can do to help.  There are always vendors set up at booths there along with the food and games.  My pastor asked if I'd like to have a booth to sell bracelets at and said the church would pay for the booth!  I've got LOTS of bracelets to make, but I'm so excited!!  Thanks, Paul!! 

That's about it for an update!  Enjoy your day!!
