Five on Friday Update
1. The Adoption– We’re still waiting on our official referral- we DID find out that she received her Christmas gift from us (a baby doll and photo book)! Some really encouraging news is that two families just got to travel and meet their kiddos, and two or three more will be going in February! After that we’re hoping to be the next family to get a referral and meet our daughter in Haiti! We’re hoping and praying our referral comes some time between June and December!
2. The Vacation!- This is the first time in a few years that we’re not taking a “Spring Break” trip to visit my parents in Florida, so as a mini-getaway we’re headed on a ski weekend! It’s just 5 hours to Red Lodge, MT so I typed this from the car and we’ll be arriving shortly! As you’re reading this all 4 of us should be cruising the mountain slopes!
3.The House- This would be why we need a vacation! We’ve really been working hard on finishing details and projects throughout the house. RIGHT before we jumped in the van for our ski trip I was putting the last coat of Waterlox on the counters and wiping the grout clean on the bathroom floor. Just for being a loyal “Five on Friday” reader I’ll give you a sneak preview of the bathroom!
4. Succulents- I got these succulent terrariums on Joss & Main last week and I’m in love. Who couldn’t use more greenery in their life?
5. These two- Seriously could they get any cuter??? Lately they both have a way of simultaneously pressing ALL my buttons and driving me crazy. Then within minutes they make me want to just snuggle them up, breathe them in and just press pause in that moment. Being a parent is so hard and so wonderful at the same time.
